The crowd that was about to leave suddenly became interested in the little beggar, and everyone stopped and looked at him again. I found that the little beggar's thin body seemed to be full of strength, and his firm eyes were full of vitality, and he had changed his obscenity and sluggishness in the past, and it seemed that he could really eat on his own.

The first to speak was the long-bearded old man: "The young man is ambitious, okay! The old man has some fields, cattle and sheep at home, and usually hires some people, how about you go back with the old man?"

"Thank you, sir, I do. Yi Jiuxiao arched his hand, thanked everyone again, and followed the old man's back.

The old man's name is Huang Ce, and he is a large local family, with 100 acres of land and hundreds of cattle and sheep, and the family usually employs three or five people, so it is really not too much to have one more child. But Yi Jiuxiao was young after all, and his body was thin, and the work in the field was obviously not good, so he could only let him graze cattle and sheep, so he handed him over to Huang Si, who was in charge of cattle and sheep, and let Huang Si take him to work.

Poor Yi Jiuxiao, once a general who galloped on the battlefield in the Great Song Dynasty, was reincarnated as a little beggar, but fortunately, he changed his identity as a beggar on the same day, and now being a shepherd boy is also an expedient measure, he must change his fate as soon as possible.

Huang Si is good, as kind as the head of the family. Originally, he was a young man who was grazing with him, but now he has been replaced by a child, and he has no complaints, he takes Yi Jiuxiao to work, and the two can talk very well.

From Huang Si's mouth, I learned that the place where I live now is Qiaotouji, Yongan County, Kaizhou, Qi State. The country of Qi is very big, and there are countries outside of the country of Qi, this is all Huang Si heard, he has never walked out of the country of Qi, and he has not even been to Yong'an County.

This is definitely not the territory of the Great Song Dynasty, there is no Qi State around the Great Song Dynasty, Yi Jiuxiao has been familiar with the scriptures since he was a child, and he once guarded the border passes. He knows the Great Song Dynasty and the surrounding countries well.

Where is this? This question was pressed in Yi Jiuxiao's heart, and now he has no ability to solve the mystery, even if he is reincarnated as a child, he still has a weak body, and he will naturally know everything when he becomes stronger.

Grazing is simple and simple, just drive the cattle and sheep to the mountains to graze. It's hard to say, it's not easy for a person to watch hundreds of cattle and sheep on the mountain and get them to obediently not run around.

Although it is two people grazing, except for the process of cattle and sheep catching up and down the mountain, it is two people, and when the cattle and sheep are grazing, one person is staring. Because the other person has to go home to cook, of course cooking is Huang Si's business, cooking is not an easy job, and he has to go back and forth several times a day.

Therefore, most of the time, Yi Jiuxiao was herding, and Huang Si taught him hand-in-hand, he was already very smart, and he could learn it almost as soon as he learned it. Although he has never done herding, he is no stranger, he has fought against the Liao army in the frontier for many years, and he knows more about the nomadic affairs of foreign tribes.

Because he was a soldier, Yi Jiuxiao was very proficient in riding, and even tamed fierce horses in his previous life, so it was naturally easy to get started with herding cattle and sheep, which made Huang Si very happy, and often praised him without hesitation.

The place where the Huang family grazes is called Luowu Mountain, this place name is very strange, but no one knows the origin, it should be the place name handed down from ancient times.

Luowu Mountain is a large mountain range composed of dozens of peaks, and the Huang family's grazing location is on the northern slope of the mountain range. The mountains here are gentle, the water and grass are abundant, mixed with some low shrubs and fruit trees, there are no fierce jackals, tigers and leopards, which are very suitable for the growth of cattle and sheep.

Further south, the mountains are gradually steep and steep, with deep forests, and there are many cliffs in the middle, and there are not even roads, among which there are many fierce beasts. Therefore, most of the villagers' activities are concentrated on the northern slope of the mountain range, and the main peak and the southern mountain are inaccessible.

The Huang family's field is just below the northern slope, and there are several houses and cattle and sheep pens built at the foot of the northern slope. Yi Jiuxiao and Huang Si have lived in several houses for a long time, and the head of the family, Huang Ce, lives in the market town and comes to check once or twice a month.

The conditions for food and housing are good, and the body that originally suffered from soul loss and could not eat was gradually improved after a few months of recuperation. The sallow little face has become healthy, and the skinny body has gradually become stronger, although it is cloth, it is no longer ragged, and the hair is also cleaned and trimmed, and it is no longer unkempt.

After recovering his physique, Yi Jiuxiao, in addition to grazing on weekdays, began to practice martial arts diligently when he had a little free time. In his previous life, he was born in a martial arts family in the Great Song Dynasty, and he was very proficient in eighteen kinds of martial arts, especially the family heirloom Tianlong Boxing, which can be described as perfect. But now he is a martial arts master in spirit, and physically he is just an ordinary child.

Everything must start from scratch, fortunately, the memory is there, the experience is there, and the practice from the beginning is also familiar, no one needs to teach him, no need to explore, no detours, what is missing is time, if time, he firmly believes that he can go back to the past.

He didn't avoid Huang Si about practicing martial arts, and he didn't have to avoid it, he used his spare time after work to do it. I am not afraid that Huang Si will steal his martial arts, stealing art in the Great Song Dynasty is a taboo in the sect, so the practice of martial arts is carried out in secret, and it is generally not easy to show people. But he gets along well with Huang Si, even if he teaches Huang Si directly, it is not impossible.

It's a pity that Huang Si doesn't know what Yi Jiuxiao is doing, seeing him sometimes dance up and down, sometimes standing on a horse and squatting for half an hour, and he can stand on a stake for a long time, which feels very strange. At first, I thought it was the nature of a child, but seeing that Yi Jiuxiao insisted on it almost every day, he finally couldn't help but ask.

"What are you doing these days, making these weird moves. ”

"I'm practicing martial arts, haven't you seen others do this?"

"No, it's the first time I've seen it since I was a child, what is martial arts, what's the use?"

Hearing Huang Si say this, Yi Jiuxiao fell into deep thought, isn't there anyone practicing martial arts in this country? In the Great Song Dynasty, even in remote places in the mountains and wilderness, there are also martial arts practices, but there is only a difference between a practicing family and a three-legged cat, even women and children will not be unfamiliar with martial arts. It's like never eating pork and watching a pig run.

"Practicing martial arts can strengthen the body, you can do chivalrous righteousness, and you can protect your family and defend the country. Although he was full of questions, Yi Jiuxiao still answered them seriously.

This answer also made Huang Si very curious: "Are there so many benefits?

"Of course you can, people with profound martial arts can live a long life. ”

"Haha~ What is a long life of 100 years old, we can live more than 100 years without practicing martial arts. ”

"Can you live to be more than a hundred years old without practicing martial arts?!" full of doubts revealed on Yi Jiuxiao's immature face, in the Great Song Dynasty, most people can only live to be sixty or seventy years old, and life is rare for seventy years, for ordinary people to live to seventy years old, it is already considered a high lifespan, and a hundred years old is even rarer.

Maybe what Huang Si said is true, Yi Jiuxiao always feels that there are many differences between this place and the Great Song Dynasty, although he has been living in Luowu Mountain since he was reincarnated, and he has never seen the outside world, but he can see that the mountains and rivers here are beautiful, the scenery is long-lasting, the grass and trees are very lush, and the livestock such as cattle and sheep are fat and strong, even in the breath, the breath is also very sweet.

In the conversation with Huang Si, Yi Jiuxiao had a new understanding of the current country, first of all, people live a long life, and secondly, they don't know what martial arts training is. How much is different, he estimates that he can't know from Huang Si that Huang Si has basically spent the past forty years in Luowu Mountain.

Yi Jiuxiao didn't want to stay in Luowu Mountain all the time, he desperately wanted to go outside to see more about this country, he wanted to know if there was an army here, and whether the army practiced martial arts. I'm still too young now, so let's talk about it when I'm older.

Another two months passed, the weather gradually got colder, and the winter of the year finally arrived. There was heavy snow outside the house, Yi Jiuxiao and Huang Si no longer went to the mountains to graze, and the cattle and sheep were all locked in the pen, eating the large pile of forage that the owner hired people to harvest a few days ago.

A fire rose in the center of the room, and Huang Si was drinking a little wine by the brazier, while watching Yi Jiuxiao practice happily, these days he has become accustomed to Yi Jiuxiao's strange movements, and it is not strange to see it.

Although the weather is cold, Yi Jiuxiao is still very thin, not because he has no cotton clothes, but because it is inconvenient to wear too much to practice, he does not go outside to graze, and practice almost occupies all of his life. After several months of diligent practice, his physical fitness has improved greatly, his body has become stronger, his strength has also increased a lot, and he is very flexible, and the one-zhang high courtyard wall can easily climb over it, which makes Huang Si very curious and interested.
