Chapter 3: Everyday Life
Maybe it was because he was in a coma for several hours during the day, although the moon was close to midday, Xu Anping still didn't feel any sleep. In order to let Yi Lian'er, who was dozing off on the side of the bed, go to bed early, Xu Anping pretended to be tired and said, "Lian'er, I'm sleepy." Hurry home and go to sleep. β
Yi Lian'er struggled to open her eyelids that were about to stick together and said, "No! I'm going to take care of you tonight. Brother Anping, if you have anything to do, you must call me. So saying, he went to blow out the oil lamp, and came back to lie on the side of the bed. After a while, the sound of breathing became even.
Xu Anping closed his eyes and slowly adjusted his breathing steadily, but his mind was extremely clear. When he came to this world, he didn't have fear or other emotions, after all, no matter how strange things were, they were easier to accept than death, not to mention that he was still a killer who was always adrift. "Anna doesn't know if she can get out of danger, so she should live well in the future." Thinking of this, two tears slipped from the corners of his eyes. Then he secretly said in his heart: "Take care of yourself, you're in another world, and you still want a yarn!" Alas, it's a pity that I will never see my parents again, and I hope they are used to living without their sons. Turning his head and looking at the little man by the bedside through the moonlight outside, he realized that maybe this was the person he should be taking care of now.
So, while running the Breathing Mind Method of his previous life, he thought back to what had happened before. Before the accident, Uncle Lin took a murder list of twenty taels of silver for himself and went to Qingping County to assassinate a young master from a large family. Although he escaped successfully after succeeding in the Baihua Building, he had to throw a dagger during the fight, and was stabbed in the waist by an attendant with high martial arts. When I met with Uncle Lin at night, I only got seven cents. Uncle Lin still said the same as before: "Anping, you are still young, you can't spend money indiscriminately, I will save the rest of the money for you." When you get married, I'll take out the money and give it to you as a bride price. "This old Wang Ba, it's really shameless, he even dares to get his master's money, next time I have to sink you into the Taiping River to reunite with your family. Xu Anping is also a nerd, he didn't even find out that this was a scam, and he was grateful. Then in order to save money to fill his stomach, he jumped into the Taiping River to catch fish and roast and eat, but he thought that he was entangled in aquatic weeds, and when he broke free, the wound that was simply bandaged broke again. As a result, the black iron mid-level assassin of the dignified "Blood Hand Alliance" was almost drowned. "Black Iron Intermediate? Or the penultimate level of assassins. NDοΌ It's really getting mixed up and going back. Thinking of this, Xu Anping was resentful. As the night got deeper and deeper, Xu Anping's consciousness gradually blurred. "That's it? It must be the cause of excessive blood loss. I'm Xu Anping, the king of assassins, and I'll kill Uncle Lin's old bastard next time. β
Sleep dark and sweet. The next day, Xu Anping woke up under the bombardment of Aunt Yu's loud voice.
"Did you steal the eggs? And say no! Who else could it be if it wasn't you? I'm going to peel you today. Your brother Anping was almost drowned yesterday, and you still need to replenish your body today, so you dare to steal eggs. ......" followed by a cry of screaming and earthly crying.
Xu Anping smiled and tried to turn over to look at the wound on the back of his waist. The wound was blistered white, and there was an open opening, but it was no longer bleeding. Fortunately, the old doctor found that he was not saved, and he did not examine his body carefully. Then, he took a closer look at his body, which was of medium height, wheat-colored skin, not strong but strong, the key was youth, and great plasticity. So, Xu Anping nodded with satisfaction, and suddenly heard someone walking towards this side, so he quickly lay down again, pretending to have just woken up.
At this time, the door was secretly opened by Yi Lian'er, and she took out two eggs from her arms, blowing as she walked. "Brother Anping, eat quickly! After eating, the body gets better and gets better faster. β
Xu Anping couldn't cry or laugh, only then did he know that Yu Xiaohu was wrongfully beaten, of course, most of the beatings were not wronged at all. "Lian'er, you have never stolen anything, don't do this in the future."
Yi Lian'er's face turned red all of a sudden, her eyes filled with tears, and she choked up and said, "Xiaohu last night... Keeps saying... A-Niang was eccentric and said boiled eggs... Give it to you and don't give it to him. I thought... My mom boiled eggs today... It's for Xiaohu to eat, so... I took it secretly. I'll admit my mistake when I go back. After saying that, he began to cry.
Xu Anping originally just wanted to tease her, but he didn't expect her to be so thin-skinned, so he said embarrassedly: "Lian'er, don't cry, it won't be beautiful if you cry again." It's all my brother's fault, so I won't talk about you next time. Let's peel the eggs, I want to eat them now. I can't finish eating the two, so let's eat together. β
Yi Lian'er burst into tears and laughed, wiped her face with a handkerchief and said embarrassedly: "No matter how beautiful people are, you will find others to be happy." Brother Anping, I'm not sick, so I don't eat eggs. As he spoke, he skillfully peeled off the egg shell, and as if retaliating, he stuffed the white and tender egg into Xu Anping's mouth, choking Xu Anping almost out of breath.
"Ahem, Lian'er, you want to choke me! I managed to get my life back. Xu Anping held his breath and tried to make his face red.
"Brother Anping, I'm joking with you. Don't scare me! Yi Lian'er hurriedly went to pour water, saying that tears were about to come down again.
"It's okay, it's okay, don't cry. Brother is afraid of you, so we will expose this matter. When you go home, you're going to be nagged by Aunt Yu again. Xu Anping couldn't help laughing and said softly.
Sure enough, after Yi Lian'er returned home after feeding Xu Anping eggs, Aunt Yu's voice rose again. "Sure enough, it's a girl who is outgoing, and she knows that her elbow is turned outward at just a few years old! It's really hurting you! I'm so angry with my mother that I beat up your brother. Forget it, it's just a naughty beating for him next time. It's not that I said you ......"
At dinner, Yi Lian'er brought a big bowl of egg noodles.
Half a month has passed in a blink of an eye, and Xu Anping's body has gradually improved under the careful care of Yi Lian'er and Aunt Yu. Under the nourishment of three eggs a day, the color is ruddy, and I am already able to get out of bed and walk and take care of myself. In fact, this is still the result of Xu Anping's pretense, he has been training as an assassin before, and his body is already better than ordinary people. Coupled with the recent secret operation of the Breathing Heart Method in his previous life, his body has long been in good shape. Since the initial recovery of his body, Xu Anping drove Yi Lian'er back to his room to sleep, of course, facing a series of tears. Out of his own cautious character, Xu Anping moved his sleeping place under the desk left by his father by the window. He always felt that there were always eyes on him, so he could only sleep peacefully in this dark corner. Xu Anping faintly felt that when he opened his mouth to ask Uncle Lin for money, that is, when Uncle Lin was in trouble.
So, when Xu Anping just felt that his body could bear it, he resumed his previous training, because the experience of his past and present lives told him: only the body will not deceive himself. Every day before going to bed, Xu Anping will do hundreds of sets of sit-ups, push-ups, frog jumps and other less intense exercises. Yin Shi trained his body in the grove behind the village, including not only the assassin skills that Uncle Lin had taught him, but also the assassination experience that he found useful in later generations. At the same time, Hui Anping was practicing Wing Chun, karate, Jeet Kune Do, sanda, etc., and practiced various special operations unit combat techniques that had been improved in later generations, such as the use of daggers. After a period of training, Xu Anping noticed that his body's memories were gradually awakened, and with the experience of two lifetimes, he was confident that he would no longer be powerless in the face of danger. Of course, it is a pity that the use of firearms that I am best at can only be reluctantly given up now.
Time passed slowly for another two months. In October, the north wind rises and the smell of winter gradually thickens. The wheat in the field no longer needs to be taken care of by Father Yu, and the family hides in the house and chats. Father Yu said about the growth of wheat seedlings, and suddenly sighed and said to Aunt Yu: "Next summer, I will go to borrow the scalper of the landlord Yu Laocai, he has been thinking about our family's five acres of good paddy fields, and he will definitely take the opportunity to make trouble again, and ask for more expenses." β
Aunt Yu exploded immediately and shouted: "He dares!" If Yu Laocai dares to come up with crooked ideas, I will hang himself at the gate of his house. β
When Xu Anping heard this, he suddenly remembered that he had hidden a sum of savings before, just to save it to buy a cow for Father Yu. He went back to the room and plugged in the door, lifted the futon, uncovered a movable bed board, and his heart suddenly became angry, and he said hatefully: "Lin Wangba! I've killed you several times, and you've only given less than fifty cents. I have to find a chance to kill you! Covered with a wooden plank and made the bed, Xu Anping walked casually to sit on the threshold in a daze, which is the way he has been passing the time.
Looking at the other two empty rooms, the chicken coop stacked in the corner, the plane tree to the left of the gate, and the empty yard, Xu Anping suddenly felt that the family alone seemed too lonely. Seventeen-year-old boy is beginning to look forward to spring.
