Volume 1: Urban Storm Chapter 3: Go to the city
"I went to the production team to get the seeds, I don't know how long it will take to come back, I've been there for a while, your father doesn't know about it, I just heard your Erniang next door say, she just came back from the town, it was a letter from a classmate of your sister in the town, saying that the owner of the jewelry store over there called her, saying that she must get the money together within three days, otherwise she will bear the consequences." Tang's mother finally explained what had happened.
"Mom, without further ado, I'll go to Dashi first, stabilize the boss, and when Dad comes back, you can let him come over tomorrow, if I don't leave today, I won't be able to catch the shuttle bus to Dashi." Tang Xuan weighed it in his heart and said.
"Okay, okay, Tang Xuan, wait a minute." After speaking, Tang's mother hurried to the back room, and after a while, she came out with an extra handkerchief in her hand, Tang's mother opened the handkerchief and revealed a stack of money, and took out 5 hundred-yuan bills from it and handed them to Tang Xuan.
"Take this money and go quickly, remember to wait for your father to come and deal with it, you first find out the situation, and then call your uncle Wang." After Tang's mother finished speaking, she immediately took a piece of paper and wrote down Uncle Wang's phone number.
Uncle Wang is the village party secretary of Panlong Village, and generally every family working outside remembers his phone number, and as long as he calls, he immediately shouts through the loudspeaker of the village committee, which can be heard by the whole village.
"Okay, Mom, then I'll go first, tell my dad not to worry, I'll stabilize the boss first and make sure that the eldest sister won't be hurt." Tang Xuan said loudly.
After Tang Xuan finished speaking, he turned around and entered his room, he took off the set of tattered clothes and pants on his body, thinking that it was fortunate that his mother didn't pay attention to his ragged clothes and pants today, otherwise he wouldn't know how to explain it to her. Rummaging through the cabinet to find a relatively new set of clothes and trousers, he quickly changed them, simply packed up the toiletries, put them in a military satchel, and then went out with the satchel on his back.
Out of the door, Tang Xuan ran along the downhill road like the wind, like a cheetah jumping around in a mountain stream, and disappeared after a while.
The place where Tang Xuan's family lives is called Panlong Village, just because this place is surrounded by mountains, the villagers have to go over the mountains and mountains when they go out, and a day has passed, so the traffic here is inconvenient, the information is blocked, and the poverty is backward.
Panlong Village is located in the middle of this mountain, stand on the opposite side of the mountain to watch, the whole mountain is in the shape of a dragon, the bottom is a cliff that is hundreds of zhang deep, a stream at the bottom of the mountain stream is running endlessly, especially when the rainy season comes, the flash flood in the mountain stream erupts, the momentum of the outbreak is like a thousand horses galloping, with enough to destroy everything The situation rolls downward.
The middle part of the mountain becomes gentle, the mountain slowly rises upwards to a height of more than 1,000 meters, here is the main cultivated land and terraced fields of the villagers of Panlong Village, the terraced fields are magnificent in layers, giving people a kind of thriving momentum.
At the end of the gentle mountain in the upper part of the mountain, the mountain rises again, all the way to the top of the mountain is a straight cliff, the visual measurement is at least more than 300 meters high, the whole mountain top is like a dragon head that wants to take off, its potential appears to be unattainable, its majesty is sacrosanct, giving people a kind of domineering spirit that looks down on the world.
Tang Xuanfeng generally descended to the bottom of the mountain, and then ran quickly along the mountain road to the opposite mountain.
The mountain road is very steep, and in some places the villagers use hammers and steel drills on the stone walls, and forcibly dig out a few footholds, which will slide down the valley if you are not careful, and the light will be broken hands and feet, and the bones will be lost. Every year, there are several tragic disasters here, and the reason is that these landing points, once the rainy season comes, they will be covered with moss, these mossy steps will lose their focus, and if the feet fall on it, they will slip out, and the body that loses its balance will fall without hindrance, and it is chilling to think about it.
Where you used to need to be careful to pass, today it is easy to climb, Tang Xuan came to the halfway point of the mountain, and looked back in the direction of Tangjiawan. In the past, I could only see some vague shadows on the opposite side, but today I can clearly see the courtyard houses of Tangjiawan, and even the relatives who are moving outside.
Tangjiawan is actually a big courtyard, a courtyard-style tiled house structure, the area is not small, the middle is a not big patio, and four families surnamed Tang live in the courtyard, all of whom are Tang Xuan's uncles.
Don't care about enjoying the beautiful scenery of his hometown, Tang Xuan continued to run towards the mountain, if he wanted to go to Zhicheng Town, he had to climb over the high mountain at his feet, if it used to take an hour and a half from his house to the town, and he couldn't kick his breath away.
Tang Xuan ran and ran, his forehead was slightly sweaty, and he suddenly remembered that the master had taught him the "Dragon Heart Method", according to the exercises to boost his luck, he felt that his body was a lot lighter, and he was as light as a swallow when he ran, and as soon as his spirit was shocked, he used all his strength to carry the exercises, and rushed towards the mountain, he quickly shuttled on the steep mountain road, like an ape-like figure that disappeared from time to time on the top of the mountain.
Half an hour later, Tang Xuan came to Zhicheng Town.
Zhicheng Town is the only central area within this hundred miles, the area is not large, only a road that is not too wide passes through the whole town, it can also be said that the whole town is built around this road, the terrain is uneven, many houses are built on the mountain wall, it looks like a window is opened on the mountain wall, because the terrain is narrow and uneven can not be expanded, so the buildings here are next to each other, and the streets are narrow and crowded.
Especially when they go to the market, they will come here to buy what they need at home, or sell their own things. Whenever this time, the small town will be crowded, very prosperous, today is not on the spot in my door in the market, there are very few people.
It was very easy, Tang Xuan found the shuttle bus that stopped on the side of the road to the city, hurriedly got on the bus, found a seat at random, sat down, and quietly waited for the shuttle bus to leave.
After a while, the car was bustling with people, and the driver started the car and set off with a shout, leaving nothing to do, Tang Xuan closed his eyes and was about to start practicing the Dragon Mind Method.
Before he could start, he heard a voice, and then someone pushed him, opened his eyes, and a middle-aged woman stood beside him, "Hey, young man, buy the ticket first and then sleep." The woman said.
"How much? Arrive in the center of the city. Tang Xuan said.
"Do you have any luggage?" The middle-aged woman asked.
"No, just a satchel." Tang Xuan replied.
"Oh, that's 80 yuan." Middle-aged woman said.
Tang Xuan gave her a hundred-yuan bill, and the woman asked him for 20 yuan, and he put it in his pocket without looking at it.
The car was driving fast on the uneven road, bumping up and down from time to time, Tang Xuan only felt that his stomach was tumbling up and down very uncomfortable, he had the habit of motion sickness before, and every time he vomited, making the person in the same seat pinch his nose and turn aside in disgust. Today he felt that the driver was driving too fast, and it was even more bumpy than the car he usually sat in, and if he continued like this, he was afraid that he would not be able to hold on for a long time, and he might vomit again.
When he was extremely uncomfortable, Tang Xuan suddenly had a flash of inspiration, if he practiced, he would do it when he thought of it, Tang Xuan sat on his seat and practiced the "Dragon Guarding Heart Method", the faint true qi in the dantian swam around his body, he felt that his stomach was no longer so uncomfortable, and the feeling of wanting to vomit just now disappeared without a trace.
Hehe, it's really good, this can work, it seems that this exercise is really good, very powerful. In the future, you have to cultivate even harder, and only then can you have more benefits. So he sat on his seat and practiced the dragon heart method in a big way.
The car was speeding on the rugged road, sometimes uphill and sometimes downhill, sometimes turning sharply and sometimes braking sharply, even so, Tang Xuan was still sitting steadily, attracting other people in the car to look sideways frequently, everyone looked at Tang Xuan with curious eyes, I don't know what method he used to keep himself from the influence of the car, and sit there peacefully.
Tang Xuan was concentrating on cultivation at this time, how did he know that a car of people watched him like a giant panda, but as time went by, everyone gradually lost interest, most of them leaned on their seats and fell asleep, and only a few people were still in good spirits watching the scenery outside the car window.
I don't know how long it took for the sky to gradually darken, Tang Xuan had just been running the Dragon Mind Method for three weeks, and he felt that the trace of true qi in the dantian had condensed a lot, and then he opened his eyes, only feeling refreshed, and he didn't look tired at all.
Well, it's getting dark, so it's time to get to the station. Sure enough, I saw the shuttle bus entering between the rows of high-rise buildings, and the traffic on the road was weaving, a prosperous scene.
Dashi finally arrived, Tang Xuan got out of the car, his eyes darkened, where should I go to find the eldest sister?
He looked around blankly, he didn't know anyone here, and more importantly, he forgot to write down the phone number of his eldest sister, damn it, what should I do? He was really in a hurry.
When the six gods were gone, a voice came to mind behind him, "Hey, little brother, do you want to stay in the hotel?"
Tang Xuan followed the sound and turned his head to find that a young man dressed in a flowing fashion was looking at him, and it was obvious that this person was speaking.
"If you don't live in the store, I'll find someone." Tang Xuan said. Let's find the eldest sister first, Tang Xuan thought.
"Hey, little brother, I'm very familiar with this part, who are you looking for, maybe I can help you?" The kid's eyes lit up, and he immediately spoke.
"Uh, this big brother, then I'm sorry for you, do you know how to get to the Nirvana Jewelry Store?" Tang Xuan hurriedly said.
In fact, he has long seen that this kid is uneasy and kind, he must be beating his idea, he thinks he is a dirt bun, so he can deceive himself into living in a hotel, it must be a black shop, and it will be strange if you don't die black after you go in.
