Life in siheyuan era

After breakfast, Zhou Dehou and Lin Shurong left home one after the other.

Seeing Lin Shurong come out, Qin Huairu immediately went out and walked on her left hand side, Zhou Dehou and Zhou Zhinning walked together, followed by First Grandpa and Sha Zhu.

A few minutes later, Second Grandpa came out from the backyard, glanced at the window of this house, and Zhou Zhiyuan, who was sitting at the table reading a book, should leave him with an impression of being studious.

A few minutes later, a strong young man walked out of the backyard. He was Liu Guangtian, the second son of Second Grandpa, who also worked in the steel factory.

After he walked out of the middle courtyard, a young man came out of the backyard pushing a bicycle.

This young man had a tall, long face, and a pair of bright eyes looking left and right. When he saw Zhou Zhiyuan, his eyes stayed for three seconds.

"Xu Damao," Zhou Zhiyuan muttered to himself. After his figure disappeared, he put down the book in his hand, got up and walked to the wall to stretch.

This was Zhou Zhiyuan's self-created Dragon Whirlwind Style, to commemorate the feeling of being swept up by that whirlwind.

This feeling was terrible. His body rotated and flew out, and he, wrapped in it, didn't have the slightest strength to struggle.

This force made him feel fearful. He broke through the ice crevice and immediately slid down the ice peak.

In retrospect, this whirlwind might have swept him to the top of the peak. He still remembered the glance he took up after breaking free from the ice crevice, seeing the blue sky close at hand.

But the power of that whirlwind fascinated him, and after repeated deliberation, he created the Dragon Whirlwind Style.

Since returning from Mount Z, Zhou Zhiyuan had only done two things: repeatedly memorizing the scene of that starry sky in his heart, and repeatedly pondering the Dragon Whirlwind Style in terms of combat skills.

But he was worried about too many things and couldn't concentrate all his thoughts until he participated in the plateau counterattack and knew that this dream was real, eliminating a worry in his heart.

Last night, when he went home and saw his parents and brother, his last worry completely disappeared. In an instant, that starry sky map rose up, and he instantly entered a state of no self, no one, no time, and no space.

He slept extremely well this time. When he woke up, he felt refreshed. At this time, doing the Dragon Whirlwind Style was like a dragon about to leap into the sky.

Five minutes later, Zhou Zhiyuan entered a static state, carefully pondered this force, integrated it into his fists and feet, and unfolded the commando team's combat boxing. He ended his training five minutes later.

His combat boxing was different. This was the result of being hospitalized.

In the plateau counterattack, his right hand was crippled. He stayed in the hospital for more than two months, strictly controlled by those nurse sisters.

Trapped in the ward, he could only practice the Dragon Whirlwind Strength and combat boxing in the middle of the night. The original alternating punches were changed to right-hand defense and counterattack. If he couldn't clench his fist, he would use palm strikes, and the back of his hand could be turned over to strike.

More than two months of hard training guaranteed his combat effectiveness. After returning to the team, he fought Li Wu, and he won after a round of punches and kicks.

Li Wu shouted, "Letting him win," but both of them knew it in their hearts.

But Li Wu really let him win by not wrestling with him. The two had fought for more than four years, and this deep friendship was built through fighting. Zhou Zhiyuan was transferred, and Li Wu was reluctant to part.

Thinking of his comrades on the plateau, Zhou Zhiyuan's face showed a warm smile. The friendship between comrades is for a lifetime. No matter how long they are separated, this feeling is sincere.

He was like a fish in water in the army, but when he returned to the local area, he had to start all over again.

Putting aside his memories, he took out his pocket watch to check the time, then put on his cotton coat, and carried his military backpack out of the room.

Seeing him come out of the house, First Aunt came out of her house and asked with concern: "Zhiyuan, what are you going to do?"

"I have an appointment with a comrade," Zhou Zhiyuan responded, then looked at the doorway of the house opposite. Jia Zhangshi was standing in front of the door looking at him.

First Aunt introduced: "Qin Huairu's mother-in-law, you can call her Aunt Zhang."

"Hello, Aunt Zhang," Zhou Zhiyuan greeted politely, then looked at Jia Zhangshi's side.

Six-year-old Bang Geng was curiously looking at him. Two small heads were趴 on the windowsill in the room. They should be Xiaodang and Huaihua. Seeing him looking over, Huaihua was still 趴 on the windowsill, but Xiaodang was gone.

Affected by the script, he had a bad impression of the Jia family. He withdrew his gaze and walked out. First Aunt followed behind and said: "Aunt will introduce you to Third Aunt and Aunt Wang."

Two families lived in the front yard, the Third Grandpa's family and the Wang family. Third Aunt and Aunt Wang both had no jobs and were standing in the yard chatting at this time.

First Aunt introduced them to Zhou Zhiyuan, then saw a handsome woman walking out of the west wing and continued to introduce: "Yan's eldest daughter-in-law Yu Li, you can call her sister-in-law."

Zhou Zhiyuan called out "Sister-in-law", then said goodbye and walked out of the yard.

Yu Li looked at his back, then looked at Third Aunt, turned around and walked into the house.

Seeing Yu Li taking the initiative to avoid suspicion, a smile appeared on Third Aunt's face. She turned her face and saw Jia Zhangshi, and greeted her with a smile.

At this time, First Aunt brought up a new topic, "Zhou Zhiyuan is a very filial child..." She liked Zhou Zhiyuan and wanted to get everyone's approval.

The four aunts chatted happily, and the protagonist in their mouths had already walked into the small shop. He shouted "Uncle Zhao" at the door, picked up the phone on the counter and dialed a number.

After a few rings, a cold female voice came from the microphone, "Hello."

"Hello, I'm looking for Shen Lanbo."

Zhou Zhiyuan replied, but he was deducing in his heart, "Who is she?"

"Who are you?" This cold voice was suitable for interrogating criminals.

Zhou Zhiyuan had already deduced the result at this time, and blurted out: "I am your brother."

There was a "slap" sound, and the other party hung up the phone.

"Heh..." Zhou Zhiyuan chuckled.

The other party's voice was very distinctive. It should be Shen Lanbo's younger sister, Shen Lanyin, who was said to be a talented woman with both wisdom and beauty.

This evaluation was made by Shen Lanbo, but he didn't think that Wang Po selling melons was true. He chuckled and dialed the phone again. After a few rings, Shen Lanbo's voice came from the other side: "What did you say just now?"

"I said 'I am your brother'."

Shen Lanbo's laughter came from the other side, and then he said: "Implement according to the first set of combat plans."

"Yes, Commander Comrade," Zhou Zhiyuan agreed, put down the phone, paid a dime for the call, and walked out of the small shop. He saw Yu Li walking towards this side from a distance.

Yu Li seemed to have some concerns. When she saw him, she stopped and a hesitant look appeared on her face.

Her attitude made Zhou Zhiyuan feel strange, but he wouldn't ask her why. He strode out of the alley and walked along Xinji Road to Yongning Street.

This street belonged to the main road. Although the peak period had passed, traffic police were still standing in the middle of the road directing traffic. People came and went on the road, with cars, trucks, buses, and bicycles mixed in, and there were also a few horse-drawn carriages walking slowly.

This road was paved with asphalt, and the sides were still dominated by Siheyuan, row houses, and classical small buildings, interspersed with a few modern buildings. The three-story red brick buildings were lonely in this building complex.

This elementary school was also a bungalow building, square and very regular.

Standing in front of Yongning Elementary School and looking at it, an idea popped up in his mind. After thinking about it carefully, he felt it was feasible, so he turned around and walked forward. Half an hour later, he walked onto Yongan Avenue. The buildings here were more modern. A new five-story building was built in the compound of the military hospital.

Opposite the hospital were mostly two-story buildings, with restaurants, hotels, and shops lined up, and there was also a three-story shopping mall.

One side of these buildings was still a yellow mud alley, and the shadows of bungalows faintly appeared behind the buildings.

With the surrounding environment in mind, Zhou Zhiyuan turned onto this street, walked past the wall of the military hospital, and the wall in front was the military compound.

He came to one side of the gate, stood still, closed his eyes slightly, took a light breath, and with a thought, the starry sky map rose up.

Since returning from Mount Z, he often stayed in this state because he didn't want to lose the brilliant starry sky. His comrades called it being in a daze.

At this time, he was in a daze, entering a state of high silence, and the sound of discussion in the guard room drifted over.

"Should we ask him?"

"No, I have an impression of him. He came back with Shen Lanbo last night. He is his comrade."

"Then there's no need to ask."

The sound of discussion disappeared, followed by a burst of footsteps.

The sound of footsteps was getting closer and closer. He came out of the silence and turned to look in the direction of the gate.

Shen Lanbo was still in that heroic image, with a tall body, powerful steps, and a pale face that didn't affect his military spirit. He strode over and casually asked: "Are you in a daze again?"

"Thinking about a problem."

He often thought about problems, so Shen Lanbo wasn't surprised. He reminded him: "Think about how to explain to Lanyin, she is very angry."

Zhou Zhiyuan replied: "I don't want to date her, why explain?"

Shen Lanbo asked unhappily: "Why tease her if you don't want to interact with her? Do you cause trouble and then run away?"

Zhou Zhiyuan smiled and said: "Are you blackmailing me?"

"Sigh..." Shen Lanbo sighed and leaned against the wall to rest. He had walked too fast just now.

Zhou Zhiyuan criticized him, "Do you only teach others the principle of 'haste makes waste'? You should do it yourself first."

Shen Lanbo didn't speak, and after his breathing calmed down, he replied: "This is called a tiger dying without falling down..."

Speaking of this, he turned his head to look, then turned his head back and said in a low voice: "Don't talk."
