After placing the drunken eighteen Arhats, Zhao Mingding forcibly gave Wei Jiumei 2,000 yuan for tuition, and asked for her contact information, so he went home.

Wei Jiumei and her cousin rowed to the Hangbang ferry and sent it home, the two drank a cup of tea and said goodbye, leaving two domestic chickens to brought, saying that they were for their grandparents to make up for their bodies, and grandma did not shirk, and took the chicken with a smile and put it in the chicken pen. Before leaving, Wei Jiumei invited Zhao Mingding to her house to play on the second day of the Lunar New Year, and her grandmother agreed, not giving Zhao Mingding a chance to speak at all. According to local customs, the second day of the Lunar New Year is the day when a married or unmarried son-in-law goes to his mother-in-law's house to pay New Year's respects. It's just that grandma didn't expect that Zhao Mingding had promised Zeng Xiaorou to visit her house on the second day of the Lunar New Year, and her promise to Wei Jiumei pushed Zhao Mingding into a dilemma. However, Zhao Mingding did not have the idea of being the son-in-law of the Zeng family, but wanted to understand Zeng Xiaorou's family background.

Thinking of Zeng Xiaorou, Zhao Mingding found that his mobile phone had been left in the Ganjiang River, and if he wanted to replace the mobile phone card, he could only return to Guangdong, and he had no money to buy a mobile phone, so he gave Wei Jiumei 2,000 yuan, and gave 500 yuan to each of his grandparents, and 1,000 yuan was used to buy New Year's goods for the New Year, and there was only 1,000 yuan left to pay for the trip back to Guangdong.

Zhao Mingding and He Caishan have a clear division of labor. Zhao Mingding works in the factory, and his monthly salary of 3,000 yuan is sent to his grandparents and grandparents, and then 500 yuan is sent to Xiao Longheng and Zou Yongxing, who are still in graduate school, and the remaining 1,000 yuan is used as pocket money. He Caishan opened a small store, in addition to sending 1,000 yuan to his parents and sending 500 yuan to Luo Shuming every month, he also had to send 1,000 yuan each month to Luo Shuming, Xiao Longheng, and Zou Yongxing's parents for living expenses, and at the same time he also had to buy vegetables and cook rice to contract Zhao Mingding's food guys. In order to save travel expenses, Xiao Longheng and Zou Yongxing rarely go home for the New Year, and Luo Shuming, who also rarely goes home for the New Year, has a girlfriend every year before the 28th of the lunar month to rush home for the New Year, and on the second day of the Lunar New Year, he will go back to his future mother-in-law's house with his girlfriend.

The five of them were born in the same year, according to the size of the month, Zhao Mingding ranked first, He Caishan second, Zou Yongxing third, Xiao Longheng fourth, and Luo Shuming the youngest. The houses of the five people are also built together, Zhao Mingding's home, Xiao Longheng's house is in the front left, Luo Shuming's house is in the front right, He Caishan's house is in the back left, and Zou Yongxing's house is in the back right. The four of them have been headed by Zhao Mingding since they were children, and they listened to his orders, Zhao Mingding was framed for the college entrance examination that year, if it weren't for the strong ones, Xiao Longheng, Luo Shuming, and Zou Yongxing would have to accompany Zhao Mingding like He Caishan and not go to college. The reason why He Caishan didn't go to college in the end was that he moved out of Microsoft's Bill Gates, saying that his interest was computer science, and it didn't matter if he didn't go to college, and many powerful hackers were not from computer classes, so before he went to the university to report, He Caishan tore up his admission notice to the Computer Department of Beijing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics, and Zhao Mingding was so angry that he couldn't change his mind after beating him, so he had to give up. That night, the five of them drank dozens of catties of grain roast and were so drunk that they were all drunk.

Without a mobile phone, and without a network cable in the countryside, there is no way to get in touch with the outside world, Zhao Mingding can just calm down and practice and comprehend the exercises taught by Taiyi Zhenren. If it weren't for Zhao Mingding's still clearly remembering the mantra taught by Taiyi Zhenren, he would really think that it was just a dream.

From taking the elixir in the cave to surfacing and returning home, it was only half a day, Zhao Mingding accompanied his grandparents to say hello after dinner, asked his grandmother to help him boil a large pot of hot water, and then returned to his room to start practicing, an hour later, Zhao Mingding felt that the whole body was light, like a spring breeze, there was a seed in the dantian that germinated and grew slowly, and finally grew a budding lotus, a fragrant breath filled the room, making people feel refreshed and happy.

"When the lotus seed blossoms, it enters my door. Taiyi Zhenren once said. Zhao Mingding slowly accepted the effort, opened his eyes, couldn't help but smile, got up and went to the kitchen to get a bucket of hot water boiled by his grandmother, and washed away the black and paste-like dirt that seeped out of the pores and stuck to his body, only to see that the skin of the whole body was smooth and delicate, like a baby. The exercises taught by Taiyi Zhenren are different, called "Lotus Incarnation Method", the lotus seed blossom in the dantian means that it has entered its door, no longer an ordinary man, you can start to practice its preaching method, and then enter the hall and carry it forward.

Zhao Mingding changed his clothes, a long night, had nothing to do, sat cross-legged again, tried to manipulate all kinds of treasures on his body according to the manipulation mantra taught by Taiyi Zhenren, and finally found that only the dragon scale heart armor on his chest could listen to his own call, as the mind loomed and expanded, put it in the palm of his hand and looked closely, it seemed that there was almost no difference with the scales on the carp's body.

"Although this dragon scale heart armor is hard and can protect the heart, it can't protect the back after all, and it is a regret. Zhao Mingding thought about it, injected his mind into the scales, and felt a tightness all over his body, as if the athlete was wearing a small jumpsuit, and then saw the scales on his chest emit a dark red light, looming, growing many small scales at a speed visible to the naked eye, spreading to the whole body, and finally covering the whole body, forming a thick armor, faintly. Zhao Mingding stood up, moved his limbs, and made a trip to Zhao's fist, spreading and moving, without hindrance. In order to determine the ability of this dragon scale armor to fight, Zhao Mingding asked his grandfather to help him feed his fists, no matter how much force his grandfather used to hit him, in addition to falling, he could not hurt him at all, because the force of hitting him was all removed by the dragon scale armor. The reuse of the sword, whether it is stabbing or chopping, is the same result, and it cannot hurt Zhao Mingding in the slightest.

"When did you kid practice the Luo family's golden bell hood iron cloth shirt?" Grandpa scolded with a smile, "This will come to me!"

"I'm not a bell-covered shirt. Zhao Mingding said, "When the golden bell hood iron cloth shirt was hit, I had luck to hold my breath, but I could breathe on my own. ”

"Look at what you can. Go to bed early!" After Grandpa finished speaking, he walked out of Zhao Mingding's room and went to sleep.

Zhao Mingding found that when the whole body was covered with armor, whether the armor was invisible or manifest, it was slower than the movement of the dragon scale heart armor when it was only blocked on the chest, at least half a beat slower, which may be a fatal flaw in the duel of life and death.

If you start to fight with the opponent wearing armor and suddenly remove the armor at a critical moment, can you give the opponent a fatal blow by taking half a beat quickly? If it is feasible, then it is necessary to complete the armor or removal of the armor in an instant, so that the heart is connected. Zhao Mingding thought about it, and began to consciously practice the transformation of armor and armor removal, until the mind was connected and it was truly completed in an instant, and then he stopped. This means that the psychic dragon scale heart armor is truly integrated with Zhao Mingding at this moment, and they will never leave each other.

The next day, as soon as the sky was bright, Yue Mingding finished a boxing practice, and he heard the sound of footsteps, and the smiling Wei Jiumei appeared at the gate of the courtyard, carrying a cloth bag on her right shoulder, and shouted: "Brother Jiuding, good morning!"

"Is it the ninth sister, please come in!" Before Zhao Mingding could answer, the grandmother who was cooking breakfast in the kitchen heard the voice and hurriedly walked out, opened the courtyard door, took Wei Jiumei's hand with a smile, and said unceremoniously, "Come on, come on, I just want to stir-fry, you come and fry." ”

"Grandma, you are really, people are guests from afar, how can you ask guests to stir-fry?" Zhao Mingding laughed.

"You don't understand, I didn't treat the ninth sister as an outsider. Grandma said with a smile and pulled Wei Jiumei into the kitchen, "After eating early, you accompany Jiumei to Dangwei." ”

Zhao Mingding was speechless for a while.

The breakfast dishes are acorn tofu, stir-fried beef with shredded taro, stir-fried fish with shredded rodishes, and stir-fried cabbage, all of which are Wei Jiumei's craftsmanship.

"How about it, it's still to your taste, right?" Wei Jiumei asked with a smile as she watched Zhao Mingding gobble up five bowls of rice in a row.

"That must be to taste. Grandma smiled, "Usually he eats three bowls of rice at most, but you see, now he eats five bowls of rice!"

"Grandma, Brother Jiuding said something yesterday, do you want to listen to it?" Wei Jiumei looked at Grandma with a smile and asked.

"Then I have to listen to it. Grandma asked, "What did he say yesterday?"

"I didn't dare to say it, I was afraid that he would beat me. Wei Jiumei opened her mouth, stopped again, and said with a smile, "Grandma, unless you make the decision for me, I won't say it." ”

"Say, Don't be afraid of him, I'll be the master for you. Grandma smiled, "If he dares to say that you don't say a word, I will peel his skin." ”

"Then I can say it!" Wei Jiumei glanced at Zhao Mingding and said with a smile, "He said yesterday 'Drunk heroes, rice supports straw belly', you see he ate five bowls of rice in one go, what kind of belly do you say he is?" Haha!"

"It's okay to drink, but don't make a mistake. Grandpa glanced at Zhao Mingding, then at Wei Jiumei, and said with a smile, "Ninth sister, you watch him strictly for me, don't let him become a drunkard." ”

"Grandpa, I'm ......" Wei Jiumei's face turned red suddenly, and she lowered her head to pick up rice in the bowl, but the corners of her mouth shook.

"It's okay, he's disobedient, you tell grandpa, grandpa beats him. Grandpa took a sip of wine, his face full of wrinkles and smiles.

After breakfast, Wei Jiumei refused the request of her grandparents to ask her and Zhao Mingding to go to Dangwei, quickly removed the sheets on the bed in the house and washed them, and tied a broom to clean the dust on the floor and wall in the house, and was busy until noon.

Zhao Mingding knew that she was going to take a boat from Zhushan Wei back to Wanhe, so he sent her to the ferry by the river.

"Brother Jiuding, you must come to my house on the second day of the Lunar New Year to pay New Year's greetings!" Wei Jiumei whispered to Zhao Mingding, blushing, and hurriedly ran towards the ferry, until the ferry started, she turned her head and looked at Zhao Mingding, reluctant to give up.
