Chapter 3 The Fang Family, Gu Wu

It was a somewhat dark alley, lined with low-rise buildings, and it looked so bleak compared to the glittering skyscrapers in the distance, one two hundred years ago, one two hundred years later.

"Whew, whew." After running wildly for more than half an hour, he faintly saw the building with a home, and Fang Shixian took a few deep breaths to calm down his violently beating heart. Nervously holding a virtual helmet with a fairly simple and generous package, he walked over a few houses to the rearmost one, and walked up the stairs like he was running to the execution ground.

Carefully took out the key to open the door, walked into this small room of less than 5o square meters, and looked at the steaming meal on the dining table, Fang Shixian sighed in his heart, and secretly said that it was still late.

Gently, pretending to be casual, he put the things in his hand aside and paced to the dining table.

With his head down, he said softly to his father, who was sitting at the dinner table, "I'm sorry, I'm late!" ”

"Hmm!" Fang Qingshan snorted, his voice was tepid, and said, "Wash your hands and prepare to eat." ”

Hearing this, Fang Shi rushed into the narrow bathroom like a wind, half-closed the door, and peeked at his father, although he could only see his back.

Seeing that his father was taking care of his own dishes, sipping wine, and didn't pay attention to the box placed in the corner next to the door, Fang Shixian couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"Heh, this stinky boy, secretly went out to work for a month, and finally bought a low-level virtual helmet?" Fang Qingshan laughed angrily in his heart, but after remembering that after calling Fang Shixian's classmates in the afternoon, he instantly became cold again, and sighed almost inaudibly: "It's like, it's all because I'm useless, and I have suffered the two of us." ”

"Alas!" I drank all the wine that I had been sipping in small sips.

Fang Shixian washed his hands and sat on one side of the dining table, with two dishes and one soup on the table, green vegetables and tofu pork ribs, and two bowls of rice.

Sitting on the chair, Fang Shixian was a little unnatural, and he was entangled in his heart about whether to confess to his father, after all, it was an excuse to study at the same school, not to go out to work as a temporary worker, especially if he ran out of money at once.

But if you think about it, you've already bought it, can you still go back it? Besides, this is not something to steal and rob, so what is there to worry about? As soon as he thought of this, Fang Shixian no longer felt cramped and uneasy just now, and even the dishes were much lighter.

And Fang Qingshan just frowned lightly, and took a sip of wine with green vegetables and tofu.

After the father and son finished their meal relatively silently, Fang Shixian, who originally stood up and wanted to clean up the dishes and chopsticks, was stopped by Fang Qingshan, "Sit down, let's talk for a while." You don't have to do that anymore. He ordered the dishes and chopsticks on the table.

Fang Shi was stunned, a little incomprehensible, from the beginning of his memory to be sensible, either his father cooks and he washes the dishes, or he cooks and his father washes the dishes, why is he suddenly not allowed to do it today? And talk for a while, what to say? This made his already settled heart start to feel apprehensive again! Did my father show something?

"This, that, Dad, actually I ......"

"Huh!" Fang Qingshan shook his head and laughed self-deprecatingly, "Do you want to say that you went out to work for the living expenses after the start of school, and finally bought a virtual helmet?" ”

Fang Shi was stunned for a moment, was his father laughing just now? It's a little ugly, but it's a laugh, right? Like, yes!

Seeing his father's long-lost "smile", Fang Shixian didn't stay for long, but immediately wondered why his father knew about him going to work, could it be that Wang Cong's bastard told him? Good boy, I promised to help me cover up, but I actually betrayed me, and next time I don't beat you half to death, I will take your surname.

"What, want to trouble Wang Cong?" As if seeing through his son's thoughts, Fang Qingshan casually lit a cigarette, and after taking a puff, he coughed again.

"Nope!" Fang Shixian gritted the root of his teeth, but he didn't admit it.

"Yes, you know."

Although the federal government has long popularized the federal language for the sake of management, the special endings and diction habits of the dialects in some regions have been retained.

Sometimes some inheritances are regarded as more important than life. Just like Fang Shixian's family, although he didn't know what else Gu Wu could do in this interstellar era, he still followed the cultivation that his ancestors had passed down from generation to generation.

"There's still a month left to start school, right?" Fang Qingshan took a puff of his cigarette and exhaled a swirling smoke, making him look a little illusory.

Without waiting for Fang Shixian to answer, he continued: "You have also grown up, it is good to have your own ideas for doing things, you don't have to tell me everything, you have to make your own decisions." In addition, although the family is a little down, you still have the cost of going to college, and you will not be required to go out to work to earn tuition and living expenses. ”

After finishing speaking, Fang Qingshan coughed again.

Seeing that his father, who usually doesn't communicate with him much, suddenly said so much to himself, Fang Shixian suddenly felt a little uncomfortable. After being stunned, he muttered: "Alas, I knew that it would be like this, and I still want to save face." ”

"Mutter something, say it out loud." Fang Qingshan still said tepidly.

"That's what you want me to say, you can't punish me for practicing for half an hour later." After seeing his father nodding, Fang Shixian continued: "You said that I grew up and had to have my own ideas, but why can't I go out to work, what's so embarrassing, isn't it good to be self-reliant?" ”

"Self-reliance?!" Fang Qingshan asked suspiciously, and after a pause, as if he had made some decision, he said, "Okay, from now on, your living expenses, tuition and miscellaneous expenses, etc., will be solved by yourself in the future, and I will not be responsible for it anymore." In addition, practice for half an hour more today. ”

Hearing the front, Fang Shixian was quite happy, the first was that his father did not blame him for spending money for him, and the second was that his father did not object to him going out to work, although he needed to support himself in the future, but he believed that he could do it. But the latter sentence of practicing for half an hour made him unhappy.

Fang Shixian's eyes were resentful, he looked at his father pitifully, and said, "Didn't you say that you will not be punished, how can you go back on your word?" ”

Fang Qingshan ignored Fang Shixian's pretended pity, stood up, walked to the window of the living room, looked at the night outside, the cigarette in his mouth slanted out of a red light, and then dimmed.

After exhaling a puff of smoke, Fang Qingshan said lukewarmly: "Well, you said it!" ”

"Can you skip half an hour?" Fang Shixian bargained with expectations.

"But I didn't say yes."

"Well, this ......, you ......, okay, got it." Fang Shixian was speechless for a while. Today, my father doesn't look as dull as he used to be, but he speaks more chokingly.

Standing up, Fang Shi hung his head and walked outside weakly.

"What, not happy?" As soon as he walked to the door, a somewhat cold voice came from behind him, which faintly made Fang Shixian shiver a little, his father was always very strict in this regard.

"Nope! Not! As he spoke, Fang Shixian raised his head and straightened his chest, as if he was a veteran who had just retired from the army.

Without looking at the virtual helmet in the corner of the door, Fang Shixian laboriously took out a vest-like garment from the side of the shoe cabinet and walked straight out.

Hearing the sound of the door closing, the expression on Fang Qingshan's face softened slightly, despite this, he was in the prime of life, his body was already a little rickety, his head was gray, and his forehead was full of wrinkles.

Seeing Fang Shixian's figure from the window, as well as the waistcoat on his body, Fang Qingshan took the cigarette butt from his mouth and said in an almost inaudible voice: "It's like, our sons have grown up and have begun to learn to share the burden for me, if you are still here, how good it would be!" ”

After that, there was another cough.

……

It is a mountain range of low hills, and the mountains are full of rocks, and the vegetation is almost invisible, or a few trees are only alone.

In order to resettle those low-income or no-income people, the federal government chose this place outside the southern suburbs of Donglai City, and built this low-cost housing after a little bulldozing, but it has a nice name - Lotus Community.

Fang Shixian's home is in the innermost part of the Lotus Community, close to the mountain range behind.

Walking on the rocky path that is so familiar that you won't bump into it with your eyes closed, Fang Shi slowly breathes out.

In the past, I used to come here every morning and evening to practice the training tasks arranged by my father, one hour in the morning and three hours in the evening, rain or shine.

In addition to the ancestral ancient martial arts, the most is the exercise of physical fitness, according to what Fang Qingshan told him, the body is a container, and physical fitness can change the size of this container, so as to wield stronger strength.

In order to exercise his strength, Fang Shixian began to practice ancient martial arts, and he wore this vest on his body that he didn't know where his father got it, and every time he reached a certain stage, his father would add some dark scraps to it. Often a small spoonful can double the pressure of Fang Shixian. Although I don't know how much this vest weighs now, when Fang Shixian was carrying a bag of rice, he felt that it was not even a fifth of it.

In order to train, every morning, he had to wear a vest and sprint around the rocky mountains, and occasionally his father would shoot a stone from somewhere.

For the sake of actual combat training, his father let him go to the city to provoke the gangsters on the street since he was a child, and he hid next to him and smoked, if Fang Shixian lost, the old man would appear, put down a few cruel words, and then take him away lightly, and come back next time. If he wins, he will jump out and say, "Bunnies, you grew up eating, you can't even beat a little kid." When he was done, he went up and stepped on it a few more times.

In the beginning, it was only a provocation of a single person, or a small group of only two or three people; When he got older, he began to find organized gangs to pick up, and he picked a group of others by himself. Later, there will be people guarding the traffic arteries between the cities, and when they see a middle-aged uncle with a child, they will tell each other and start to hide and not appear on the street. So much so that some police stations in the city began to idle all day while taking bonuses.

As usual, Fang Shixian came to the top of a mountain that was flattened by his feet.

Exhale deeply, stand naturally, feet shoulder-width apart, chest and back, heavy shoulders and elbows, and then slowly raise your arms and then press down to the front, and then grab the tail of the bird, a single whip, and the handle is upscale, only to see the degree is getting faster and faster, with the sound of the wind.

After playing the added version of Tai Chi, Fang Shixian also took the short flip boxing, the long boxing in the check boxing, cannon hammering, as well as Wing Chun, Bagua, Xingyi and various boxing methods.

He doesn't take the form to the sense, he only seeks the degree, and he only warms up.

After sweating slightly, Fang Shixian began to practice the Fang family's own mastery - the Seven Tricks of Selflessness.

I saw him holding his head with a fist with his right hand, his left foot crossed to his right knee, and he fell to the right in a strange posture, and when he was less than a fist away from the ground, Xuanzhi stopped again, and he staggered but did not fall to the ground.

It didn't take long for a slight snoring sound to come from between Fang Shixian's mouth and nose.

The seven tips of self-forgetfulness, according to Fang Qingshan's explanation, is to sleep, practice martial arts in dreams, practice martial arts, and combat martial arts, but at the beginning there was a harsh requirement, you must practice under the moonlight, and only after reaching a certain level can you do what you want, sleep how you want, and practice how you want. It is estimated that there is still a long way to go.

……

On summer nights, insects chirp and compete with each other.

The two satellites, named the Great Wall and the Yellow River, hang high in the night sky, emitting a mesmerizing light.

The light reflected from the satellite to the earth was not as bright as expected, but when it shone on Fang Shixian's body, it was like wearing a god of war armor for him, and there was a faint halo around him.

Time flowed away minute by minute in Fang Shixian's slight snoring, and the sweat slowly soaked his clothes, with the gravitational pull, dripping on the ground, ticking, the transparent beads of sweat with brilliance, turned into countless fine pieces.

Bang!

Fang Shixian fell to the ground with a breath, his face was a little pale, as if he had lost all his strength. If someone looks at the watch, it will definitely appear, from Fang Shi to the present, exactly three and a half hours have passed.

After resting for a while, Fang Shi ignored the dust on his body, crossed his legs and spun around, and then ran towards home.

Just kidding, there is a helmet at home that he bought with all his wealth waiting for him, how can he have any time to take care of the dust on his body? Young people are completely intolerant of new things.

Kick up the stairs, open and close the door. Fang Shixian has never been so eager to do something.

Just as he picked up the virtual helmet and rushed to the room, Fang Qingshan's voice sounded just right.

"The potion has been mixed, soak and wash it before playing!"

Suddenly, Fang Shixian's face was like a frosted eggplant, wilting!

……

Fang Shi was leisurely, soaking naked in the green potion, and wanted to moan comfortably.

Although he began inhuman training since he was a child, he had bulging muscles and criss-crossing scars, his body was as streamlined as perfect, his muscles were refined and clear, his skin was so smooth that even a woman would envy him, and he didn't even have a trace of hard calluses on the soles of his hands and feet.

After half a ring, Fang Shixian looked at the potion that had become so faint that it was no longer green, and his heart was in a trance. Although I don't know exactly how the potion was made, my father would go out for a while every year and bring back a bunch of unknown weeds and bottles and cans.

I have the impression that after my father came back one time, he began to suffer from coughing, and his health became worse and worse. But he never said more to himself about this, and it was useless to be anxious.

However, this potion was still very magical, no matter how tired he was after cultivating Gu Wu every day, after soaking it, he was refreshed. No matter how many injuries you have on your body or how many scars you have, as long as you soak them for a period of time, the scars will slowly disappear until you can no longer see them, just like the surrounding skin.

Hula, Fang Shixian walked out of the bathtub, rinsed his body, shook his head, threw out some messy thoughts, and then came to his room in his pants.

Looking at the virtual helmet that stayed quietly on the bed and had not yet torn the package, Fang Shixian was like looking at a beautiful woman, a little excited, and a little at a loss.

No matter what, Fang Shixian pounced on it, divided it by two, picked it up, and then connected it to the power supply, connected to the scum terminal at home, and then connected to the personal micro-end according to the instructions, identified the personal identity, and put the virtual helmet that cost all the belongings on his head.

Although it is a lot of process, it only takes 3 seconds.

……

"Welcome back to Aurora Virtual Network!"

A white light flashed, and Fang Shixian appeared in a large square where people came and went. Then I heard a female voice with an electronic voice.

"Hey, how do you feel familiar? I'm like I've been here. Fang Shixian whispered puzzled.

"Aurora Virtual Network? Yes, this is the Aurora Network, I have been to the Aurora Bar before, and it was here when I went offline last time, but I didn't expect the machine battle to be in the Aurora Network, buy a virtual helmet, and you can enjoy the Aurora Network for free in the future. ”

Fang Shixian looked around and muttered to himself.

Aurora network is a kind of virtual network connected with various devices according to the unique nature of personal micro-terminals, such as optical brain, micro-terminals, etc. In addition to this personal information, the personal micro-terminal also has simple positioning, search, and communication functions. It is a necessity that has been popularized to individuals after human beings entered the interstellar world.

Compared with the word machine warfare, Fang Shixian is more familiar with the Aurora virtual network, after all, this is not the first time he has come.

So he began to call up the search program, searching for information about the aircraft war.
