Chapter 4 Straw Bales
The Ancient Martial True Scripture is the first of the four great strange books of the Ancient Martial Continent, which is divided into the ninth layer, and Zhang Zhening has also practiced to the seventh level in the Ancient Martial Continent, but it is enough to make that continent tremble.
However, when Zhang Zhening tried countless times to transport the internal force in the way of the ancient martial arts, he was surprised to find that not to mention the internal force, there was not even a trace of qi!
In the other world, the entry point for cultivating internal force is to find the sense of qi, and now Zhang Zhening can't even feel the sense of qi, which shows that after he crossed back, not only did he not bring back that extremely powerful body, but even the internal force was not brought over!
With a helpless wry smile, Zhang Zhening slowly sorted out his thoughts, and later came to a conclusion that after he crossed back, he didn't bring anything back except for his memories of the other world.
This made him extremely disappointed, and decades of penance were gone?
In addition to the loss, it also gave him a new idea, if he comes, he will be safe, besides, he is a person who belongs to this world, and the Guwu Continent may be just a dream for him.
Except for the students in the school, the rest of them were almost gone, and Zhang Zhening walked to the school gate with a lot of concern.
At this time, I suddenly felt a vibration in my trouser pocket, followed by a strange sound.
There is a hidden weapon!
This was Zhang Zhening's first reaction, almost instinctively rushing upwards in an attempt to dodge.
Then the end result was that he did not fly as light as a swallow as expected, but just jumped in place in a very ugly position.
Only then did he remember that his cultivation was no longer there, so how could he fly off the wall like before?
He carefully figured out the source of the strange sound and vibration from his trouser pocket, and when he saw it clearly, he immediately smiled self-deprecatingly.
After leaving for too long, I forgot that in this time and space, there is a communication tool called a mobile phone.
In the Guwu Continent, it also has its own Guwu civilization, but the communication method still relies on the primitive flying pigeon to pass on the book.
This is not to say that the ancient martial civilization is backward, it's just that the civilization over there emphasizes personal cultivation, and many of the tools for the modernization of this time and space are not used at all there.
For example, the guns and cannons in this time and space, in the Guwu Continent, those who have cultivated to a certain realm, the power of a palm shot is similar to that of a cannon.
Suddenly, Zhang Zhening had an almost absurd idea in his mind, that is, if there was a duel between the ancient martial civilization and the modern civilization one day, which civilization would be more powerful?
The ancient martial civilization has the cultivation of destroying the world, and the modern civilization also has an atomic bomb that is enough to raze a city.
It's just that this thought is just a flash, Zhang Zhening knows that this is just an absurd idea, how can the civilizations of two time and space intersect one day?
However, what Zhang Zhening never expected was that this day would really happen in the near future, and the cause was because of Zhang Zhening himself.
Putting aside these messy thoughts, Zhang Zhening tinkered with his mobile phone for a while according to his memories from decades ago before turning out the caller ID just now.
When he saw the two words on the caller ID, Zhang Zhening's eyes turned red.
Mom!
These two words are strange and familiar to him, in the Guwu Continent, he doesn't have any relatives, and over there, he is very lonely.
But he just remembered that in this world, there is a mother who loves him very much.
quickly dialed the phone back, and after hearing the other party's voice, Zhang Zhening almost cried.
"Mom......"
When Zhang Zhening shouted this word, his voice was trembling, and he realized how happy he was to be able to call his mother happily.
Mother heard Zhang Zhening's strange appearance over there, and hurriedly asked anxiously, "Zhening, what's wrong with you, did something happen?"
"No, Mom, I'm fine, you wait for me at home, I'll be back soon." ”
Talking to his mother made Zhang Zhening feel warm, no earth-destroying cultivation, or any supreme position, could not be happier than being able to call his mother happily.
"Well, it's okay, don't go home, today is your grandfather's birthday, hold a birthday banquet at the Brilliant Restaurant, you can come directly to the Brilliant Restaurant." ”
"Well, I know Mom, I'll come here. ”
After hanging up the phone, Zhang Zhening couldn't wait to rush towards the Brilliant Restaurant, what he wanted to see most now was his mother, for him, it had been decades since he had been absent.
On the bus, Zhang Zhening thought of his grandfather's family, and suddenly felt a touch of pain in his heart.
My grandfather's family is not a rich man, but he can barely be regarded as a rich man, and he and his mother still live in a dirty and dilapidated shantytown in an urban village.
The reason is that my mother was not born to my grandfather, but was adopted by my grandfather back then, and later my mother did not listen to my grandfather's advice and insisted on getting along with a man.
My grandfather asked my mother to make a choice between that man and herself, and my mother firmly chose that man.
From then on, my mother and grandfather broke up completely.
Later, after the man left Zhang Zhening in his mother's belly, there was no news of him again, and he seemed to have completely disappeared from this world.
And Zhang Zhening, in the eyes of his grandfather's family, has become a wild seed, and he is not angry, he is stupid, his academic performance is poor, and he is not good in all aspects.
Later, although my grandfather's family reluctantly had to deal with themselves and their mother, they were cold-faced every time, and they never gave themselves and their mother a good look.
Especially when treating Zhang Zhening, he opened his mouth as a waste and closed his mouth as a straw bale.
Zhang Zhening actually didn't want to face his grandfather's family, but his mother was there, and he had to go in order to see his mother.
And Zhang Zhening knows that now he is no longer the cowardly straw bag he was at the beginning, if his grandfather is bullying his mother, he must make them look good.
My grandfather celebrated his 80th birthday this time, and in addition to his own relatives, he also invited the families of several of his old comrades-in-arms.
When Zhang Zhening arrived, the guests inside were almost there, and it looked very lively.
"Oh, the straw bales are here too, you're really thick-skinned, has anyone invited you?"
As soon as Zhang Zhening walked into the hall, he heard a snarky voice, and when he looked up, it was his cousin Qiao Na.
Qiao Na is also a student of the No. 2 Middle School in the city, and is in the same grade as Zhang Zhening, although the two are related, but Qiao Na has never regarded Zhang Zhening as her cousin, every time she meets, she is cynical, and she never greets herself when she sees herself in school.
Joanna is the pearl of her grandfather's palm, and there is a reason for this, although Jona's character is not good, but she is a big beauty, and she excels in her studies, she has always been the first in the whole grade, and she is not bad in other aspects, so in the eyes of everyone, he is the baby of this family.
In the past, Zhang Zhening had never dared to raise his head to speak in front of Qiao Na, and he felt extremely inferior when he saw Qiao Na.
But now it was different, and he didn't pay attention to Jona's cynicism, but after looking around, he asked, "Where's my mother?"
"Serve tea and pour water over there, find it yourself, good dog won't get in the way, get out of the way!"
Qiao Na said coldly, she was about to go out, but she saw Zhang Zhening walking towards her, the road was actually very wide, but she didn't take a detour, just to let Zhang Zhening make way for her.
Zhang Zhening didn't care so much, and after looking around, he soon saw that his mother was carrying a teapot to pour tea for the guests.
"Mom!"
When Zhang Zhening saw his mother again, his eyes turned red, and he hurriedly ran over and took his mother's hand.
Seeing that Zhang Zhening's eyes were a little red, her mother hurriedly asked, "Zhening, what's wrong with you?"
Zhang Zhening took his mother's calloused hand and said with a smile, "It's nothing, there was sand in my eyes just now." ”
"Oh, that's fine, you go over there and sit down first, and I'll come over when I'm done here. ”
Zhang Zhening saw the teapot in his mother's hand, and he was not happy, "Mom, no matter what, we are also guests here, and you are not a waiter, why do you do these jobs!"
"Anyway, being idle is idle, obedient, you go and sit over there first, and I'll come over in a while." ”
With that, the mother went on to pour tea from the other table.
This made Zhang Zhening feel very uncomfortable, but he was helpless.
My grandfather's family is like this, treating his mother as a servant.
Zhang Zhening sat at a table in the corner, there were many relatives in the audience, and they also saw Zhang Zhening, but everyone who came up to say hello was used to it.
Zhang Zhening only pondered, the banquet would end soon, so that he could go home with his mother and talk well, for decades, he had a lot of things to say to his mother.
Just when he was in a daze, he suddenly heard a scream from in front of him, "I said what's the matter with you, can you pour tea, clumsy!"
Zhang Zhening looked up and saw that his eldest aunt was yelling at his mother, and his mother apologized vigorously.
Zhang Zhening hurriedly got up and walked over there and asked, "Mom, what's the matter?"
The eldest aunt on the side said bitterly, "Oh, the straw bag is also here, you and your mother are virtuous, and they are both people with problems with their heads." ”
Zhang Zhening was unhappy for a moment, turned his head to stare at his aunt, and said, "What's wrong with my mother?"
The eldest aunt snorted coldly, pointed to her teacup and said, "Haven't you heard that the wine is full of respects, and the tea is full of people? You can't pour too much tea, your mother filled my teacup, isn't this driving me away? There are such people in the Qiao family, it's really embarrassing!"
After finishing speaking, he glared at his mother, "Why are you still standing stupidly, don't be idle, go away quickly, so as not to be embarrassed here!"
"You ......"
Zhang Zhening was about to go crazy, but suddenly a person stood up from the side and grabbed Zhang Zhening, the man smiled, "Hehe, today is our father's big day, don't talk about this, let's celebrate our father's birthday together in a while, so that his old man will be happy." ”
Zhang Zhening saw that the person who pulled him was his aunt, if there was anyone in the family who was good to him and his mother, it was his aunt.
After the aunt said this, she dragged Zhang Zhening away, then sat next to Zhang Zhening, and whispered, "Don't be angry, your aunt is this virtue, don't be like her." ”
Zhang Zhening felt so aggrieved in his heart, he couldn't wait to rush up and slap the woman twice, but his aunt said so, so he had to give up.
