Chapter 17: Old Friends
Wei Xiaodong helped Shao Qiang back to his house. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info not far away, so it didn't take long. Wei Xiaodong has been going to school outside all these years, and these old friends from childhood have rarely been contacted.
Shao Qiang was just a little dizzy, and his speech was still unaffected. "What the hell is going on today? I still don't quite understand?"
Wei Xiaodong told Shao Qiang what had happened. Only then did Shao Qiang understand what was going on. This matter is over. No one will mention it again.
Wei Xiaodong sat at Shao Qiang's house for a while, and when he saw that he had nothing else to do, he went home. In his heart, he was thinking about the Xuanling Exercise right now. Because Wei Xiaodong felt that he was not smart, but Wei Xiaodong could persevere. This is his greatest strength.
Wei Xiaodong remembers an incident that happened when he was in the third grade of primary school. At that time, the math teacher asked the students to do a problem. Wei Xiaodong didn't know what was going on that time, it just wasn't right.
The teachers and classmates were very surprised, because Wei Xiaodong had the best academic performance, how could he not be calculated? Some students who usually studied poorly laughed at Wei Xiaodong at the bottom.
"It's still good to study, why can't you even do this problem? It's stupid......
Wei Xiaodong didn't take these remarks to heart, and in fact, he didn't hear them either. Because he was immersed in the world of that math problem. He did not feel the passage of time.
Eventually, he finally got the answer to the question. Several methods were also used. Moreover, in the future, Wei Xiaodong has never made the same mistake with the same type of question as this question.
The classmates who laughed at him were just happy for a while, because they didn't understand the real meaning of the question at all, and when it came to the exam, the teacher just changed a few numbers, and they couldn't do it. And Wei Xiaodong really understood. Exams are still number one.
At that time, Wei Xiaodong understood that he was not smart, but he could just hold on for a while longer than others. This college entrance examination is the only thing that Wei Xiaodong insists on doing, and he did not succeed in the end, but Wei Xiaodong learned the most important thing in life from this incident.
That is, you can't do everything successfully in life, you have to learn to give up. So that you can see what else you can do.
Wei Xiaodong returned home and saw his mother, but she didn't say anything. It seems that she has complete confidence that his son will be able to handle this matter.
Wei Xiaodong also felt that his father's attitude towards him had changed. It seems that what to do to oneself is no longer instructed, and what is no longer allowed to be done.
In fact, Wei Xiaodong participated in the college entrance examination so many times, not only because of himself, but also for Wei Xiaodong's father.
Wei Xiaodong's father was not admitted to college back then, which has always been a regret in his heart, so he put his hope on his son Wei Xiaodong, and in order to let his son Wei Xiaodong go to high school, he tried his best.
Although Wei Xiaodong went to high school, his small shoulders were a little unbearable because he was burdened with so many heavy responsibilities.
In Wei Xiaodong's high school memory, the most is the difficulty of life, which makes him a little unable to let go, so although he is a teenager, he has more adults than other peers, and he lacks liveliness and sunshine.
Since Wei Xiaodong got the "Xuanling Canon", he has changed a lot, his personality has been stretched, and his advantages have begun to show and grow.
Wei Xiaodong returned to his room and looked at the simple furniture in the room. In fact, Wei Xiaodong's hut only has a table, a chair, and a bed.
However, these pieces of furniture have a story to tell. That table was shared by Wei Xiaodong's father and Wei Xiaodong's grandfather after they split up. The bed and the one were pulled from Wei Xiaodong's second aunt's house. Wei Xiaodong's second aunt's house is in the provincial capital, hundreds of miles away from Wei Xiaodong's house.
After leaving this time, I don't know if I will have the opportunity to sleep in this hut so quietly in the future. Wei Xiaodong said in his heart that there may not be any, because Wei Xiaodong believes that his efforts can definitely create a new world.
Wei Xiaodong calmed down and began to practice the Xuanling Exercises, which had become an indispensable part of Wei Xiaodong's life. It can be said that if he does not practice Xuanling Gong, it will be difficult for Wei Xiaodong to sleep.
This time, Wei Xiaodong opened the "Xuanling Sutra" again, and he found that every time he watched it, he had a new harvest. Maybe it's different every time!
This time, Wei Xiaodong is also looking forward to a new harvest in his heart.
This time, Wei Xiaodong just started to look at it, and found "the spirit of absorbing the qi of heaven and earth." "What is this talking about? Why did you watch it so many times and not pay attention to this sentence?
Suddenly, Wei Xiaodong patted his head, isn't that what aura means?
Then look down, "The spirit of qi, in the wilderness, in the inaccessible world." ”
Wei Xiaodong thought at this time, what can I do about this? Is I going to go on an adventure in the wilderness? I feel very exciting to think about.
By the way, Wei Xiaodong thought of one thing, in fact, he had done such a thing with a few friends. Last time, Wei Xiaodong and a few classmates went to the Shaolin Temple scenic spot to play, because everyone is very poor. Some students paid attention to it, since everyone can't afford tickets, then we will travel on a budget.
Everyone asked, what is a poor tour?
The classmate said, "It's just a wild line!" and then he told everyone about it. It is not to take the route of the scenic spot, take the path, and because there are fewer people, the scenery is better.
We bought a couple of tents and some convenience food. I got off the bus near the Shaolin Temple. Started the poor travel.
Because when I arrived, it was getting late, and I couldn't go on a tour. Wei Xiaodong and a few classmates found a nearby park and set up a tent on the grass. As soon as they finished their work, they found that a few tents had been erected next to them, and it seemed that there were still many people who thought like this!
Wei Xiaodong: They spread a large cloth on the grass. This was also bought, specifically for picnics. Taking out the convenient food that I bought and eating it in a big meal is really a unique flavor! At night, the cool breeze is blowing, why are the stars in the sky so bright? The feeling is really different!
The next day they walked on the path, there was really no one else, although the road was not easy to walk, but, walking, it was very tasty, especially the wild fruits on the road, which also made everyone taste a different feeling.
Wei Xiaodong has a deep memory of this field trip. This "Xuanling Codex" says that if you want to find a place with a lot of aura, you have to go to a place where there are few people. Wei Xiaodong decided that this time he would go out to work by himself, and he would also take the unusual path, so that he should gain more. Wei Xiaodong thought that he could also go to see his second aunt.
Wei Xiaodong remembered a sentence, if you receive a little water, you will be rewarded by the spring. Wei Xiaodong's second aunt helped Wei Xiaodong's family so much, although Wei Xiaodong didn't have the money to buy them very expensive gifts now, but sending goose feathers for thousands of miles was a light and affectionate gift. Look at it as a way to show your heart!
Wei Xiaodong began to run the Xuanling Exercises, one week, two weeks, three weeks, and then he could still run. Wei Xiaodong ran the fourth week very hard. Then it couldn't run anymore, but Wei Xiaodong was already very satisfied. He's used all his strength.
This extra week has given Wei Xiaodong more strength, although it can't be said to be any good, but Wei Xiaodong feels that he is at least more confident, because he feels that he has been improving, and that is enough.
Although Wei Xiaodong doesn't know what his tomorrow will be, he will always work hard. He remembered a sentence, but he couldn't remember who said it, life is like chocolate candy, you never know what the next bite will taste like.
Wei Xiaodong feels that an uncertain life is actually his pursuit. If every step of your life is set by others, is it still your own life?
Wei Xiaodong thought that he would relax in the past few days and meet friends in other parts of his county, after all, once he went out, he would be busy. It's not so easy to think about it anymore.
Wei Xiaodong went to take a shower before going to bed, and felt a lot more comfortable again, watching his skin really get smoother and smoother. I'm really not used to it. He fell asleep satisfied. This time he didn't even dream.
The next day, when he got up early in the morning, Wei Xiaodong dressed neatly and ate the food cooked by his mother, although it was simple, but it was very fragrant, Wei Xiaodong ate slowly, because once he went outside, he couldn't eat his mother's cooking often. He had to remember the taste.
Wei Xiaodong's mother saw Wei Xiaodong eating so slowly, and she thought he was sick?
"Xiaodong, is it because my mother's food is not delicious, or are you sick?" Wei Xiaodong's mother said with concern.
"No, Mom, it's delicious. I'm not sick either. I read that the medical book left by my master said that when eating, chewing slowly is good for the body. Wei Xiaodong moved out for this reason.
"That's right! You usually vomit wolf, and you suddenly eat slowly, and my mother is not used to it. But, in the future, do as your master said, chew slowly. Wei Xiaodong's mother said.
"By the way, Mom, I'll go to the west of the county to find my classmates in a while, and I won't eat at home at noon. Wei Xiaodong said.
"Go ahead, it's okay, Mom knows. "Wei Xiaodong's mother is out.
Wei Xiaodong went out to the main road at the edge of the village to wait for the bus, and happened to meet Daniel Zhang who was also waiting for the bus.
"What a coincidence, where are you going?" asked Wei Xiaodong.
"By the way, I forgot to tell you, I went to work in Li Shoufu's factory, and he has machines in his factory, and I am responsible for repairing them. Where are you going?" Daniel Zhang said.
"I went to the west of the county to talk to a few classmates. Wei Xiaodong said.
"Come and play with me when you have time, let's play chess. I'm usually there at night. Daniel Zhang said.
"Okay! I'll go when I have time. Wei Xiaodong said.
