2. Temporary wine
Why was Shao Yuan's mother so excited when she heard that Shao Yuan was going to participate in the conscription?
Because this is a world where demons are rampant, it took a long time for the human race to occupy the land where it can survive now under the leadership of the Holy Yang Dynasty.
Today's most powerful demons are all isolated from the Great Wall of Ten Thousand Paths, which is built with countless human flesh and blood.
But as the demon who was once the overlord of the world, he was naturally unwilling, and the human race lived a safe life in the Great Wall of Ten Thousand Roads.
Therefore, demons often teleport demons to the Great Wall of Ten Thousand Dao through the teleportation array.
In addition to maintaining law and order and rectifying evil, the Terran army within the Great Wall of Ten Thousand Paths has the greatest responsibility to deal with this part of the demons that have been randomly teleported to human territory.
Shao Yuan's father was once a member of the Terran army.
And he lost all his comrades in the same team in a battle against demons, although he survived, but because the meridians of his whole body were destroyed, he had to leave the army and return to this mountain and countryside to become a butcher who killed pigs and sold meat.
With her husband's experience in the past, as a mother, Lin naturally would not want her son to join the army and face danger.
Shao Yuan understands his mother's thoughts, but he is really unwilling to be a 'pig killer' for a lifetime.
When he was about to speak, his father next to him preemptively said: "The eldest husband should stand up to the heavens and the earth! What is wrong with Ah Yuan joining the army and going to break into his own world? I support him!"
"Support him? Support him for being like you, his muscles and veins are all destroyed, and his whole body hurts when it comes to rainy weather?" Hearing Shao's father's words, Lin Shi seemed even more excited, "Do you still support him in facing those dangerous demons, and he may lose his life at any time?"
Looking at his wife, whose eyes were reddening, Shao Yuan's father wanted to say something, but he was speechless.
Feeling his father's gaze at him, Shao Yuan nodded at him.
Walked up to her mother, put one hand around her shoulder, the other hand stroked her belly, and said softly: "The little one is about to be born, and I don't know if I will have more brothers or sisters." ”
As he spoke, Shao Yuan wiped away the tears from his mother's eyes, "Mother, I don't want him to mention that after he is born, he will only think of the fact that he can join the army, but he has a lifetime of miscellaneous. ”
"Leave this aside, and don't talk about defending the territory where the Terrans live. If one day the demons really attack, I want to have the ability to protect my younger siblings and protect my family. ”
The Lin family is actually not a person who does not know the righteousness, and looking at Shao Yuan's determined eyes, he gradually calmed down.
Glaring at Shao Yuan, and then at her husband who was sitting on the bed as if he was smiling, Lin threw the porridge fritters he was holding on the table angrily.
Then, with small high-frequency steps, he walked to another room and slammed the door slammed.
Seeing his mother behaving like this, Shao Yuan could only be helpless.
Shaking his head, he handed his father a copy of the porridge fritters that his mother had brought back, and then sat down to prepare for breakfast.
"Ah Yuan, in fact, you don't have to force ......"
"Dad, needless to say, I know the dangers of joining the army, but I've made up my mind. Shao Yuan looked at his father, who wanted to stop talking, and spoke.
"Hmm. Father Shao replied heavily, without saying much, and the expression on his face looked relieved and complicated.
After breakfast, Shao Yuan went out again.
I found a bookstore and walked in.
The owner of the shop is an old scholar, who is also a private school teacher in the village, and the books in the store are only rented and not sold.
Shao Yuan didn't bother to take too many books back, so he simply came to the store to read books every time.
After crossing over, I will come by to read the last book in my spare time.
It's not that Shao Yuan is a person who likes to read, but because he needs to deepen his understanding of the world.
Shao Yuan didn't have many memories inherited from the original owner, barely enough for him to recognize the people in the village.
Of course, the memory of Zhang Qiang is very clear.
It seems that the original owner has a strong grudge against him.
In addition, Shao Yuan did not inherit any other knowledge of the original owner.
Without inheriting all the memories of the original owner, Shao Yuan felt a little headache while he was grateful that he would not become a split personality.
As soon as he crossed over, Shao Yuan was basically equivalent to a big illiterate person who was illiterate and whose cognitive range did not exceed the scope of Dashi Village.
Fortunately, the words of this world are seven or eight points similar to the words of their own world, and if you don't understand it, you will get a warm answer if you ask the bookstore owner.
At this time, Shao Yuan had already mastered and understood the writing and general history of this world.
It will not be difficult to walk out of the village gate.
After reading the last page of the book in his hand, Shao Yuan breathed a sigh of relief.
There aren't many books in the bookstore, so I've basically gone through them all now.
At the same time, the system's voice sounded: "The host completes a serious reading and earns 11 experience points." ”
Putting down the scroll in his hand, he came to the counter and put down the three copper coins, and said to the shopkeeper, "Shopkeeper, I put the book back in its place, thank you." ”
The shopkeeper with white hair was holding a book and reading it intently, and he didn't pay attention to Shao Yuan at all.
Seeing the other party's reaction like this, Shao Yuan didn't worry too much, walked out of the bookstore, and saw that the sun was already in the west, Shao Yuan stepped up.
I need to go home and cook.
The mother is still pregnant, and the father is injured in bed, and Shao Yuan cooks during this time.
It's just that when he returned to the door, Shao Yuan found that cooking smoke had risen from his chimney.
When I returned home, I found my mother busy in front of the stove, and the chicken soup in the pot was sizzling.
There are also a lot of dishes on the table, including ham that has been sealed at home for a long time and is ready to be eaten until the New Year.
Shao Yuan's father was already sitting on a chair at the table, with two glasses of poured wine in front of him.
Shao Yuan recognized the wine jug placed in the corner of the table, which was a good wine that his father had been sealing in mud for a long time and had always been reluctant to drink.
"Come, let's have a drink tonight!"
Looking at his father's smiling face, Shao Yuan felt a little surprised.
"It's ......"
Before he finished speaking, his mother Lin took the chicken soup and put it on the table, and at the same time gave Shao's father a blank look, "Zhang Qiang's father said that Zhang Qiang and they are going to participate in the recruitment assessment in the town tomorrow, and your father has already said that you will go with them tomorrow morning." ”
"...... in that house"
Before he finished speaking, Shao Yuan's father spoke: "You don't have to worry about it at home, my waist will be better in half a month, and it won't make a difference if you kill one or two pigs less." ”
As he spoke, Shao's father handed Shao Yuan a glass of wine, but he didn't think about it, but he was taken by his mother Lin and drank it in one gulp.
"Here, eat more. ”
Looking at his mother, who kept putting meat in his bowl, Shao Yuan smiled.
He took the wine glass and poured it on it, and then it touched the wine glass that his father was holding.
