Chapter 2 Civil and Military

Seeing the existence of martial arts, Xiao Tianlei couldn't help but feel a little uneasy in his heart, he originally thought that he could make a difference by relying on the knowledge of his previous life, but now it seems that the difficulty has increased by more than a star and a half, although he is eager in his heart and wants to know more, but unfortunately the access to information is limited, so he can only come step by step. Anyway, martial arts or something has no impact on Xiao Tianlei's current life. It's the LOL system, so that Xiao Tianlei has to spend some thought, and now, Xiao Tianlei will call the hero of the LOL system a hero template.

Xiao Tianlei often maintains the state of using the power of Demacia hero template, because it can promote his physical growth, Xiao Tianlei hopes that he will grow up faster, however, he is also hungry very quickly, the older he gets, the more obvious it is, Xiao Tianlei has to, how can he eat enough food and meat every day? It's just that today's family background is really not good.

There were three low adobe houses, and a hedged courtyard, and apart from some simple and simple furniture, there was nothing of value in the house, and the clothes of the whole family were basically patched. His father, Xiao Qinghe, is an authentic farmer, who tends the fields, carries water, collects firewood, repairs the family, occasionally goes out to do some work, earns a little hard-earned money, and usually speaks little; Mother Jiang did housework every day, and had almost no leisure to feed the pigs, chickens, cut pigweed, weave cloth, cook, and play with bast shoes, and the only entertainment was about when she went to the well to wash her clothes, and cheered with the other women in the village. Xiao Tianlei also has an older brother, almost two years older than him, named Xiao Tianfu, except for two thick eyebrows like ink strips, he is a stunned boy, nothing special.

The family feeds pigs and chickens, and it seems that the family is also well-off, but whether it is pork or eggs, the power to dispose of them is not in their own hands.

After a preliminary understanding of the surrounding environment, Xiao Tianlei has always had a doubt, although the environment in Lingzhou is harsh, the climate is suitable for crop growth, two crops a year, parents are not lazy, get up early and be greedy for darkness, how can they only barely eat and wear? At first, he guessed that the taxes were too heavy and the land rent was too high, but later he learned that his family was originally a black household and did not need to pay taxes, but in fact, many people in the village were black households, just to avoid paying taxes. The fields planted by his father were not rented, but were cultivated by the older generation and purchased by the older generation, but these fields did not belong to private individuals, but belonged to the clan.

At this time, Xiao Tianlei realized how poor his family was, the fields belonged to the clan, and all the land obtained from cultivation had to be handed over except for rations, and the pigs in the pigsty were also raised by the clan.

The purpose of this is to concentrate financial resources and provide for the scholars in the clan, hoping that they can gain fame and revive the lintel of the Xiao family.

As for why the elders of the Xiao family ******** so painstakingly want to do this, they have to mention the origin of the Xiao family in Zhengjiazhuang.

Langya Xiao clan, a few decades ago was originally a famous clan in Middle Earth, many clansmen were officials in the imperial court, and later because of something so that the whole clan was implicated, the Xiao clan people were scattered everywhere, some of them were exiled to Lingzhou, experienced some twists and turns, and finally a few people settled in Zhengjiazhuang, decades have passed, multiplying into a Xiao family of nearly 100 people today.

The older generation of the clan still remembers the scenery of the Xiao family at the beginning, and they will never forget it, and they have made up their minds to revive the Xiao lintel and return to their ancestral land. And if you want to revitalize the family, the best way out is undoubtedly to study, participate in the imperial court's literary examination, and gain fame.

The cost of studying is not small, and the Xiao family has no other property except for a little land, so they can only let the whole clan grit their teeth and live a hard life, looking forward to the future One day, the scholars in the clan will become big officials, and the whole clan will ascend to heaven and enjoy happiness. It's a pity that the whole family has spent a lot of money for so many years, and there are a few apprentices and a bachelor.

Probably in order to stabilize the mood of the clan, Xiao Tianlei's grandfather, that is, the current patriarch, always has to say that as long as the people in the clan are educated and pass the exam, the whole clan can live a good life, and whose children are learning well this year. Other old people in the clan often talk about the Lang evil Xiao clan at the beginning, the fertile land is thousands of acres, the clothes come to reach out for the rice to open the mouth, the chicken, duck and fish meat, the delicacies of the mountains and the sea...... The so-called painting bread to satisfy hunger and hope for plums to quench thirst is about the same thing.

It's not that the clansmen are easy to coax, they are at the bottom of the society, and they want to get rid of the original class, that's all they can hope for, this is also the requirement of the elders in the clan, and no one can disobey it, at least on the surface. As for secretly, it is not surprising who secretly saves some private money, gets some good food and eats it quietly, or gossips in private.

The most disadvantaged are some honest people, such as Xiao Tianlei's father Xiao Qinghe, not only did the fruits of hard work go to the clan, but his family suffered hardships, and he also had to serve as a servant for those naturalized scholars.

With such a clan system, Xiao Tianlei can understand a little, but he can't stand it, and he doesn't want to be a filial son and grandson, and he doesn't think he can change anything. Xiao Tianlei will not be bored with himself, but he has already made up his mind that if he wants to live a good life, eat well and dress warmly, he has to find his own way.

In fact, Xiao Tianlei really wants to work hard to study, and he may be able to make a name for himself, and it is not necessary to get fame, but he is originally a character who does his own thing, and he will not do things he doesn't like. For studying and exams, Xiao Tianlei really has some psychological shadows, and more than ten years after the college entrance examination in his last life, he still often has nightmares about exams.

Zhengjiazhuang's village school, Xiao Tianlei occasionally goes around, like other children, lying on the windowsill and looking inside, the difference is that Xiao Tianlei can learn the words of this world, it is not difficult for a person with adult thoughts at all, basically read once, listen to it, you can learn a seven, seven, eighty, eight, anyway, the village school teaches those words a day.

In addition to literacy enlightenment and some basic arithmetic, the content of village learning teaching mainly learns the writings and articles of the sages of this world.

Philosophy is a pit, although it has its practical significance, but when people use it, the biggest function is about to fool people, and gaining fame is just a stepping stone. Xiao Tianlei is a pragmatist, he has lived for twenty or thirty years in his last life, although he is not very good, he understands everything that he should understand, and he doesn't believe in those false, he only knows that the road has to be taken step by step, and it is useless to blow it no matter how awesome it is.

For martial arts, Xiao Tianlei is more interested, and when the strong men in the village practice martial arts, they often go to see the excitement. Martial arts practice is quite a common thing in this world, especially the people of Lingzhou are fierce, and men will basically practice a few hands. However, although the practice of martial arts is common, only when you practice Gang Qi can you be regarded as a real martial artist, so how to practice Gang Qi?

Xiao Tianlei originally thought that there would be something similar to meridians and dantians, but as a result, all of them did not exist at all. The method of generating Gang Qi is not a secret, there are those widely circulated stories, on the battlefield or in the vendetta of the rivers and lakes, someone suddenly stimulates Gang Qi, exerts great might, and kills the enemy.

In addition to explosively stimulating Gang Qi, there is also a more peaceful way, that is, practicing martial arts, which can also be produced by practice.

As for the cause and principle of the generation of gangqi, Xiao Tianlei can only attribute it to the difference in the world, originally, Xiao Tianlei found that this world and the world in his previous life seem to be the same, if you look closely, many things have subtle differences, and if you get to the bottom of it, there may be some subtle differences in the basic composition of matter.

There are different types of Gang Qi, and there are also various ways to use it, and the resulting power is different and high, but these are all in the hands of some big clans, Jiangmen families, and sect gangs, not ordinary people can know, and Xiao Tianlei has no way of knowing. However, one thing is certain, there is a prerequisite for practicing martial arts, that is, a strong physique.

Poor and rich, I heard a lot of this word in my previous life, put it in this world, the same reason, precious medicinal materials, medicinal baths and the like, not to mention, at least, adequate nutrition is a must, to put it simply, first of all, you have to eat enough, and it is best to eat meat every day.

The family is barely fed, and occasionally can eat some meat, some fish caught by his father in the river, or the water from the butcher, maybe once a month, not much each time, Xiao Tianlei only felt more hungry after eating, he had to think of his own thoughts, there was not such an old saying in his previous life, self-reliance, abundant food and clothing.

Zhengjiazhuang is close to the mountains and forests, there are often some birds and wild beasts stealing crops, and there are many rivers nearby, among which there are naturally fish and shrimp. Xiao Tianlei liked to watch programs such as the animal world in his previous life, and he was quite loving to wild animals, even if it was a small animal, he would not hurt it easily, but now in order to eat a bite of meat, love or something, the devil knows where to throw it!

It's just that Xiao Tianlei must also be cautious, Lingzhou is called a land of smoke miasma, it is not to say that there is miasma in the mountains and water, many animals and plants are poisonous, and wild animals may have some parasites and the like, which must be handled carefully before they can be eaten.

Relying on some experience and knowledge in his previous life, things went quite smoothly, and Xiao Tianlei got some food as he wished, although they were all frogs and grasshoppers.

When Xiao Tianlei found out that killing some small animals, he could also get gold coins, which gave Xiao Tianlei great motivation, although there were only one or two poor babas, he originally thought that he could only get them by fighting people or hunting wild beasts.

There are two kinds of gold coins in LOL games, one is the reward gold obtained after playing a game, which can be called system gold, which is mainly used to buy heroes; The other is the gold coins obtained in the game, which can be called game coins and are used to buy equipment.

Xiao Tianlei is still young and can't change his situation, so he can only adapt, but he has the LOL system in his body, if the system gold can really buy new hero templates and obtain some new special abilities, it will undoubtedly become the capital to gain a foothold in this world.
