After three years, Ling Chi and Xiao Zhao returned to Peach Blossom Island.

On this trip, he didn't find the valley where Zhang Wuji got the Jiuyang Divine Skill, and he didn't have any adventures, but he just found some rare things in the Kunlun Mountains that were older than that, which was not worth the trip.

When he walked out of the Kunlun Mountains half a year ago and returned to Middle-earth, he learned that the Exterminator had returned to the Emei faction a year ago, so Ling Chi sent Zhou Zhiruo back.

Ling Chi returned the Xuantie Ring to the Exterminator Master and had a secret conversation with him.

After that, the exterminator Tai tested Zhou Zhiruo's martial arts progress. Zhou Zhiruo's strength made the exterminator too shocked and ecstatic, because Zhou Zhiruo at that time had reached the top white.

When they were separated, Zhou Zhiruo hugged Ling Chi and burst into tears. This time, Xiao Zhao was not angry, and ate melons the whole time.

……

"Ahh Finally home. As soon as the boat landed, Xiao Zhao jumped onto the shore and shouted excitedly: "Auntie! I'm back! ”

Ling Chi tied up the boat and said with a smile, "Come in and let your aunt take a look!" Now you're half a head taller than your aunt. ”

Thirteen-year-old Xiao Zhao has reached a height of 1.55 meters. According to the current trend, it is a certainty to exceed 1.6 meters in the future, and it will be more than 1.65 meters in the future. This made Ling Chi feel a sense of accomplishment, because although the specific height of Xiao Zhao was not mentioned in the Jin Daxia book, it was described as 'petite'.

This petite is basically less than one meter six in modern times, and in the late Yuan Dynasty, the average height of the common people is much shorter than in modern times, and the word petite is almost a patent of less than one meter five and five.

Xiao Zhao was almost sixteen years old when he appeared in the original book, and according to the maximum value, the sixteen-year-old Xiao Zhao was only 1.55 meters. And now, thirteen-year-old Xiao Zhao has reached this height.

Balanced nutrition and good living habits are indeed the only way to grow taller.

By the way, half a year ago, the top of Zhou Zhiruo's head could reach Ling Chi's chin, and there was a visual measurement of 1.63 meters. This is also more in line with the description in the original work - slender body.

Maybe in a few years, Zhou Zhiruo can grow to 1.7 meters.

……

"Auntie, I miss you so much!" Walking through the peach blossom array, seeing Aunt Shuang'er, who had not seen her for three years, Xiao Zhao hugged her tightly. After hugging for a while, I felt that something was not right, lowered my head, looked at Shuang'er, and raised my hand to compare: "Auntie, why have you become shorter?" ”

Shuang'er is autistic.

I can't afford to hurt one meter or four!

……

The cold comes and the summer goes by, the autumn harvest and the winter are hidden, and in the blink of an eye, three years have passed.

In the past three years, Ling Chi has been hiding in Peach Blossom Island, having nothing to do, cooking, practicing, playing music, reading books, and going to Zhoushan from time to time to find Pu Heng's old blacksmith to make some kitchen utensils.

Over the past few years, although the old blacksmith Pu Heng is getting older, his iron-striking skills have become more and more exquisite. This is also thanks to Ling Chi's half-baked chemical knowledge, which provided him with many ideas.

At the beginning of this year, the old blacksmith created a kitchen knife that sharpened iron like clay, which shocked Ling Chi enough, because the hardness of this kitchen knife was actually comparable to the hardness of the sword that Zhu Fei gave him.

At that time, he slashed with the sword in his left hand and the knife in his right hand with the same force, and as a result, the sword broke open a small hole the size of a grain of rice, which made Ling Chi feel distressed to death.

This sword was his only spiritual sustenance for Zhu Fei, but he cut a gap.

Fortunately, the old blacksmith was very skilled and restored the sword, which made him breathe a sigh of relief.

But......

Ling Chi's eyes stared at the old blacksmith with blazing eyes, and the old blacksmith was scared tightly: "Gong...... Childe, old ...... The old man doesn't sell his body. ”

Ling Chi: "......"

Two months ago, Ling Chi recruited the old blacksmith as a farmer with money that the old blacksmith's family could not spend in ten lifetimes.

Although he was a farmer, the old blacksmith usually did not do farm work, so he set up a simple workshop by the river, pondered his iron-making skills all day long, and showed Ling Chi new technology products from time to time.

Although the time is still short and the progress is not obvious, it makes Ling Chi full of expectations for the future.

Since moving up to Blue Cooking, he has found that many recipes are no longer as simple as cooking. For example, the dish of Dichong Golden Lotus, which he is currently researching, requires him to use kitchen utensils made of 100 steels in terms of hardware.

In addition, he also has to read more Buddhist scriptures, and inject Buddhist Zen into the dishes when making them, so that he can succeed.

Ling Chi is really a dog.

For this, he had to go to the dilapidated South Shaolin Temple and buy a complete set of manuscripts of various Buddhist scriptures, which cost him a full thousand taels of silver, which made him feel distressed enough.

It's not that the Buddhist scriptures are expensive, it's that he was fooled by the abbot of the temple and lame, and donated 1,000 taels of incense money.

The monks of South Shaolin are really miserable, and almost all the monks here are monks who chant and worship Buddha, unlike a bunch of monks in Songshan Shaolin Temple. In this era, you can't survive without the ability to take care of your home. This is the case with the Southern Shaolin Temple.

When Ling Chi first came here, he saw that the monks here were all yellow and thin, with almost no incense, and they all relied on the monks to farm the land and make a living.

But these monks are in a very good mental state, especially the abbot of the temple, who is really a great monk, Ling Chi wanted to chat with him for a few words, but he didn't expect to be bluffed as soon as he chatted.

All kinds of Zen words come as soon as you open your mouth, and Ling Chi, the top student in the college entrance examination, who listens to all kinds of Zen machines, has to think for a long time...... I still don't understand.

In this way, Ling Chi was fooled and lame, and exchanged a thousand taels of silver for a sack of scriptures.

It wasn't until he returned to Peach Blossom Island that he came back to his senses: Am I being deceived?

Thinking that he had spent a thousand taels of silver on these tattered scriptures......

Ling Chi's heart ached and couldn't be sucked.

After reading a lot of scriptures, he gradually gained a little bit of Buddha nature, which was reflected in the increasing degree of completion of the Diyong Golden Lotus.

"Ding, Ground Chung Golden Lotus, 13% ...... completion"

A plate of golden lotus was smashed to the ground by Ling Chi and shattered.

Can't be in a hurry, can't be in a hurry, Amitabha......

……

Just when Ling Chi was enjoying a peaceful but fulfilling life, on this day, a somewhat familiar and at the same time unfamiliar voice came from outside Peach Blossom Island: "Brother Ling, are you at home?" Zhiruo is here. ”

After a while, Xiao Zhao rushed out of the peach blossom array and saw Zhou Zhiruo, who he hadn't seen for more than three years, on the coast.

The two looked at each other, and their eyes were complicated.

Time flies, and now Zhou Zhiruo is a girl who has reached the age of eighteen.

She was holding a sword, wearing a long green skirt and dragging the ground, her figure was slender and full, delicate and beautiful, and she was like a fairy.

Xiao Zhao bit his lip lightly: Damn, she is more beautiful.

Xiao Zhao was looking at Zhou Zhiruo, and Zhou Zhiruo was also looking at her.

I saw her wearing a pink long dress, her figure was exquisite, her complexion was crystal clear, soft as jade, her complexion was very white, her nose was higher than that of ordinary women, and her eyes faintly had the blue meaning of the seawater.

Zhou Zhiruo pursed her lips: she ...... It's beautiful.

"Humph!" Xiao Zhao snorted lightly: "Why are you here?" ”

Seeing that Zhou Zhiruo was half a head taller than herself, her mood became more and more bad.

Zhou Zhiruo smiled slightly: "On the orders of the master, I have something important to discuss with Brother Ling." ”

"What can you do? It's not the things that fight and kill on the rivers and lakes. Xiao Zhao was impatient and was about to bombard: "My father doesn't have time to care about your mess, go and go, don't disturb my father's purity." ”

"Xiao Zhao, don't be rude." Ling Chi flashed out, gently tapped Xiao Zhao's forehead, and scolded with a smile: "Why haven't you seen you for a few years, or are you so arrogant to Sister Zhiruo?" ”

"Who asked her to disturb Daddy's purity!" Xiao Zhao took her arm and said coquettishly: "Daddy, don't get involved in those fights and killings, okay?" ”

"Okay." Ling Chi's eyes were full of doting: "Dad won't participate." ”

"Hee-hee, daddy is the best." Xiao Zhao stood on tiptoe and kissed him on the face.

Zhou Zhiruo on the other side saw it, and a trace of envy flashed in her eyes.

"Let Zhiruo make you smile." After appeasing Xiao Zhao, Ling Chi turned his head to look at Zhou Zhiruo, and exclaimed: "I haven't seen you for a few years, but Zhiruo is getting more and more beautiful." ”

Zhou Zhiruo's delicate face flushed a little, and looked at Ling Chi's face, but she was a little surprised: "Brother Ling has not changed a bit. ”

"Haha, it's hard to give up on natural beauty, there's no way, you can't envy it." Ling Chi looked 'helpless'.

Zhou Zhiruo sneered, her eyes like a crescent moon: "Brother Ling is still so funny." ”

And Xiao Zhao......

There is also Peach Blossom Island......

It's good that it hasn't changed at all.
