Chapter 11 Out of the Village
The first time I ate, I did not say anything to the old Guan family, and the whole table was depressed.
Several people in the entire Lao Guan family are constantly sandwiching meat between the old man.
Guan Xi kept sandwiching the meat for the old man, and at the same time kept looking at his attribute interface, after eating the meat, the blood volume really began to recover slowly.
After eating in a hurry, Guan Xi stared intently at the old man's severed right arm, but unfortunately, it did not improve at all.
After resting for more than half an hour, and the family also paid attention to it for more than half an hour, the wound on the old man's body was much better, and he was no longer bleeding, but his right hand still couldn't be used, and it hurt when he moved, Guan Xi couldn't help but feel frustrated.
How is this possible, obviously after eating the meat, the old man's blood has recovered slowly, why is his arm still broken!
Look at yourself, not only has your blood recovered, but even such a serious wound on your chest and back has already scarred, why the old man's hand has not improved at all.
Grandpa and Guan's mother are also at a loss, but my mother is chattering, if the world is still the same as before, not to mention far away, even the roots of traditional Chinese medicine in Shuwan Village next door can cure Guan's father.
It's a pity that there is no way now, after all, the village that was originally just across the river is now blocked by these towering giant trees, and I can't even see anywhere, where to find roots.
Seeing his mother's red eyes, Guan Xi couldn't help but be bored with the Guan knife and ran to the yard to chop the wood.
However, Guan Xi still knew in his heart that he was the only combat force in the family at this time, and he was injured on his body, so he didn't dare to use all his strength, for fear that the wounds on his body would crack, so the splitting was even more boring.
After an afternoon of cultivation, Guan Xi only improved the sword technique by 1 point, but fortunately, after the previous battle, the sword technique had been improved to 49.
During this period, Guan Xi kept hearing the roars of the terrifying beasts at the head of the village, but fortunately, it lasted for a few hours, and when he saw dinner, he finally disappeared.
Moreover, the Guan Gong Ancestral Hall has not been invaded, and it seems that the important buildings of the territory are not attractive to the fierce beasts.
After supper, the old man went to bed early.
As a son of man, Guan Xi actually knows very well that his strong character is actually inherited from the old man.
So can the old man not be strong? One arm is useless, and it is still the right hand that is customary, how can the old man accept it.
The most important thing is that in such a dangerous world now, it is strange that the old man has no ambitions.
But Guan Xi is not good at saying anything.
As a man, he knows better that for a wounded male lion, what is needed is to give him space to lick his wounds, not to comfort him with pity in his eyes.
The grandfather obviously thought the same as Guan Xi, and also saw the discomfort of his grandson, and the old man couldn't help but come up, but he didn't know where it was, took out a pack of cigarettes, smoked one, and handed it to his eldest grandson.
"Xi'er! Your father's affairs, I know you are uncomfortable, but life is fate, things have come to this, why should you be depressed? I'm sure Guosheng doesn't want to see you like this either. ”
The cigarette emitted a faint smoky scent, and Guan Xi gently grabbed it and crossed his nose.
took over his grandfather's kerosene lighter, a burst of green smoke rose, Guan Xi silently lit the cigarette and took a deep breath.
"Xi'er, now that the world has become like this, people can practice martial arts just like on TV, oh! It's an upgrade cultivation. Although your father's hand is broken now, but grandpa believes that in the future, this magical world will definitely have a chance to be cured, as long as you can continue to practice martial arts, what do you think? ”
Grandpa's eloquence is no less than that of his grandson, and he comforts people, and it is also reasonable and convincing.
I heard my mother say that when my grandfather was young, he did ideological work for people, which was very powerful.
Not only is the village managing it well, but grandma's irritable temper is still obedient to grandpa's management, and if you want to come to your own eloquence, you also inherited grandpa.
"I know, Grandpa! If there is no way, I will not deceive myself and ask for trouble, but now there is a doctor in Shuwan Village next door, as long as I can go over and find him, Dad's injury will definitely be cured. ”
Deeply exhaling a puff of cigarette, Guan Xi said with some unwillingness.
"Don't listen to your mother, that's before the world has changed. Right now! Now where do you go to find Tree Bay Village? Besides, the bushes that suddenly appeared were terrifying to look at, was that a place where people could go? Who knows what powerful beasts were there in those years? If something happens to you, what will happen to this family? ”
Grandpa knocked his cigarette gun on the ground unhurriedly and said slowly.
"Hmmm! All right! Then I won't talk about Dad. Grandpa, I have heard an old saying, on the battlefield, the soldiers who are afraid of death will die faster, and I have been thinking sometimes, isn't this world the same as a battlefield? The battlefield of evolution, the survival of the fittest, is more brutal and direct. ”
Guan Xi pondered his words and continued to smoke a few puffs, as if he wanted to use this thin thing to numb his excited and restless heart.
"So I'm thinking, this world is now forcing people to move forward, and they can't walk anymore? I guess it's time to die. I'm not afraid of death, but I'm afraid of losing someone in the family, grandpa, do you know! When I was doing business outside, in fact, my biggest dream, what I wanted to realize in my dreams, was to be able to have money and power in the future, and to bring you and my father to my fifth uncle to live together, without worrying about money, and enjoying life. ”
"I'm still wondering, was I a little too cowardly before, isn't this world exactly what I dreamed of before? Although it was not the business opportunity I was looking for, it became more dangerous than ever. But the opportunities have been reshuffled, and everyone can choose as much as they want. I'm hiding here, cowardly hiding, not daring to go out and take the initiative to upgrade and improve my strength, what's the difference between this and the big bosses I mocked, who shrank their hands and tailed and missed the opportunity? ”
Guan Xi's mood fluctuated a little, and his heart became lively and turbulent again. After a few puffs, Guan Xi directly smoked the remaining half of the cigarette, crushed it fiercely, and bounced it out with his fingers.
"So, grandpa, I decided to go into the forest tomorrow, not impulsively, not to seek death, your grandson and I haven't lived enough! It's just that I think that Shuwan Village is imperative, the development of the village needs people, and I need to adapt to this world, and I also need to improve my strength and cultivate myself. Otherwise, if we continue to hide like this, we can't take advantage of the fact that we can't establish a stable territory now, and our old Guan family will not be able to live sooner or later. ”
"What's more, I'm going to find the root and cure Dad!"
After speaking, Guan Xi patted his buttocks, dusted upstairs, and went upstairs.
"Hey! Young people now! I don't know what to say, I'm old, I'm old, I'm really old! ”
Grandpa shook his head, continued to give himself the cigarette gun that had been with him for decades, filled it with some bait, and snorted it, and in the dark night, he only saw a red dot, flickering bright and dark.
As soon as it was dawn in the morning, Guan Xi woke up, and as his physical fitness became stronger and stronger, his daily rest time became shorter and shorter, and his mental state was getting better and better.
Guan Xi glanced at his parents who were still sleeping, looked at his mother's eyes that were still a little red and swollen, and his father's forehead with deep wrinkles, didn't say anything, took two changes of clothes, and quietly went downstairs.
The grandfather who was lying on the bed opened his slightly squinted eyes, sighed, turned over, wrapped himself in the quilt, closed his eyes and continued to doze.
Guan Xi picked up the Guan knife at the door of the room, and walked downstairs in a few steps, thinking about what to take, but found that there was already a neat and completely filled bag on the table.
Don't think about it, it must have been the last thing that grandpa installed for him last night.
Guan Xi clenched his fists tightly, and breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, he must not let his grandfather down, so he decisively put on his bag, carefully opened the door, covered it, climbed over the wall, and went straight to the entrance of the village.
Shuwan Village is located in the south of Zhongcun, and it is just across the river from Zhongcun, which is more than 1,000 meters away. In the past, when he was a child, Guan Xi would wander over when he had nothing to do, catch yellow eels and beat lotus pods, and he had many fights with the children in the next village.
It's a pity that now the entire south of the village is covered with towering trees that are fifty or sixty meters high.
Guan Xi did not hesitate, since he had made a decision, he would not dwell on it and ask for trouble.
After taking a careful look, the village and the woods could be seen, there were no fierce beasts passing through at this time, Guan Xi carefully leaned against the wall and slipped smoothly to the entrance of the village.
The entrance of the village is Guan Xi's second grandfather's house, and he is a distant relative.
After all, the old Guan family fled from the north, and after settling in Zhongcun, he had no relatives, and his grandfather recognized several relatives for his family at that time, including the second grandfather's family who also came from the north.
Guan Xi glanced back at his house again, and from this place on, he was about to step out of this home where he had spent several days in peace.
However, I will definitely be able to come back smoothly, and I will also bring back the doctor's roots in Shuwan Village.
Guan Xi didn't think about what to do if Genzi didn't want to come over, although he was a good person, he was not a good person, and he didn't want to come, so it would be good to tie him up.
Carefully walk down the hurdle at the door of the second grandfather's house, the middle village is a flat land with a high base, and you have to go down the hurdle when you leave the village.
In just a few hundred meters, Guan Xi rushed all the way into the woods, he had not learned any tactics to advance, he could only hope to quickly rush through this unconcealed section, in case he was discovered by some fierce beast.
After a smooth trip, Guan Xi did not encounter any fierce beasts fighting the autumn wind, and safely entered this towering forest composed of prehistoric giant trees in the Jurassic era.
Guan Xi had only seen such a huge and lush forest on TV, and the trees in it were far from being comparable to this place.
After all, under the immersion of the scene, this tall tree is like piercing the sky, and the shock to him is incomparable.
In the forest, as far as the eye can see, the canopy of trees is layered on top of each other, close together, like a sea of green.
At the bottom of the tree, there are also a lot of exotic flowers and plants, even if the sun does not shine all year round, they still grow lush and green, exuding a refreshing fragrance of plants and trees.
Guan Xi has read an article before, saying that when the concentration of oxygen in the air increases, carbon dioxide will decrease, after all, plants will suppress the content of carbon dioxide, which will also lead to a lower greenhouse effect and colder air.
But now the temperature is getting higher and higher, which is estimated to be a kind of ability contained in the cosmic energy of the will of the planet.
After all, the temperature is high and the oxygen content is high, which will lead to the increase in the size of organisms and the improvement of the strength of the earth's organisms. After all, the size is bigger, of course, the strength and other aspects will be improved, and it will be easier to survive predation.
Guan Xi sometimes can't help but wonder if human beings will grow bigger and bigger.
However, Guan Xi is not a scholar, and he doesn't care about these things, all he cares about is the survival of himself and his old Guan family.
