The sky is blue, the morning sun is unusually soft, Zhang Hao, who got up early, saw his mother was feeding the crying beasts in the yard (similar to chickens, ducks and geese), Zhang Hao took a deep breath of fresh air, and was in good spirits at the moment, and after saying hello to his mother, he strode towards the house where the fat man lived.

It's been five days since the last violent incident in Menghai, and the fat man really had a bruised nose and swollen face that was beaten, and he didn't get out of bed for three days.

Since then, the fat man vowed to practice martial arts, for these, of course, Zhang Hao was happy to see, but this guy was too lazy, so that every time Zhang Hao went to wake him up, he couldn't help but sigh, it turned out that he had slept to a certain level, and he really couldn't wake up!

Pushing open the door of the house, I saw the fat man lying on the bed squirming all over his fat body, with a column of saliva hanging from the corner of his mouth, and a snot bubble on his nose rising and falling with his breathing. Walking to the fat man's bedside, Zhang Hao, as before, lay next to the fat man's fat ear, used all his strength, and shouted loudly: "Sister Yurou is here!"

The fat man smashed his mouth, but he was about to turn around and fall asleep, probably when he heard the words of Sister Yurou, he suddenly opened his eyes, his body immediately rotated one hundred and eighty degrees, and his legs kicked on the bed, rushing out of the door like a cannonball, Zhang Hao shook his head with a wry smile and walked out of the door.

"What are you doing? It's burning early in the morning?" I caught a glimpse of the fat figure standing in the courtyard with his head drooping in big pants, and a thin old man with Chinese hair scolded him hatefully. Zhang Hao has been on Zhengyuan Dalu since he came to Zhengyuan, and all the information he has learned comes from the mouth of this old man. This old man is the father of the fat man, and everyone calls him Uncle Ge. However, Uncle Ge was limited to talent and failed to successfully open the Brain Domain Divine Soul, so he also knew nothing about cultivation.

"Uncle Ge, why did you get up so early?" Zhang Hao chuckled and greeted the old man.

"Young master, early. ”

Bending down lightly towards Zhang Hao, he performed a standard etiquette, and although he had been away from the family for decades, Uncle Ge had always maintained this etiquette.

Nodding slightly, looking at Uncle Ge's sweaty appearance, Zhang Hao asked, "Uncle Ge, what are you doing in a hurry this morning?"

"Young Master, I'm talking to you about this. Uncle Ge wiped the sweat stains on his face and said: "This year's harvest in our village is good, plus everyone has been hunting for several months under the leadership of Brother Menghai, and the food and materials in the village for winter are ready to stop, so we are ready to start this year's winter training in advance." ”

"Winter training?" Hearing this, Zhao Lan walked over, seemingly more interested in this, because she knew that her son was very keen on martial arts.

Bowing slightly, Uncle Ge looked at Zhao Lan respectfully, and said, "Madam, Brother Menghai, as the only summoner in dozens of villages within a radius of a hundred miles, holds two two-month training tournaments every year to train the young people in the vicinity to enhance their self-protection ability and prevent the attack of horse thieves in winter. One of them is summer training and the other is winter training. You forgot, four months ago, Xiaopang and the young master also participated in summer training. ”

Zhao Lan was stunned for a moment, coming to this strange shijie, it had only been three months, how could he know what had happened before?

Seeing this, Zhang Hao hurriedly diverted Uncle Ge's attention and said curiously: "Uncle Ge, are there many horse thieves near us?"

Hearing this question, Uncle Ge nodded solemnly and said, "A few years ago, when the horse thieves were short of food in winter, they would come down and loot the surrounding villages. But now it's much better, because there is a city lord who has reached the level of summoning grandmaster from the city of Xihe on the border of us, and under his leadership in the past two years, many horse thief villages have been wiped out. ”

"Fifty miles to the west of our village, there is still a nest of horse thieves who are not weak, and it is said that the leader of this horse thief has a close relationship with the brother-in-law of the city lord, and they have survived because of their meritorious service in exterminating other horse thieves. ”

"This nest of horse thieves has swelled a lot in size in the past two years, absorbing the remnants of other horse thieves, but it is due to the majesty of the city lord of Xihe City, and their style of action is not too excessive. It's just that every village gathers filial piety every year, and they rarely go down to the village to burn, kill and loot. ”

Uncle Ge said the information he had learned, which made Zhang Hao's heart let go slightly, after all, he still had a few days of stable life on this shijie, and he didn't want to be disrupted by a group of vicious horse thieves.

Seeing that the suspicion on Zhang Hao's face was completely removed, Uncle Ge said happily: "Young master, let's go, the young people from the nearby villages have gathered, although you have been tested since you were a child, and your soul is too weak to open, but if you can practice some martial arts, you can also become a master." ”

"Forehead ......"

Hearing Uncle Ge's words, Zhang Hao couldn't help but roll his eyes. He knew that the martial artists who cultivated martial arts on this shijie were all low-level martial artists, and their cultivation prospects were very limited, and the ones who could really become masters were those illusionists who had superb divine soul talent and could contract phantom beasts.

However, what made Zhang Hao depressed was that the reason why he was kicked out of the family in this life was that he was tested when he was just born, and his soul was judged to be a waste wood. Therefore, the head of the Zhang family, who is also Zhang Hao's grandfather, sent them back in order to protect their mother and son from encountering accidents in the battle of the big family.

Feeling the helplessness on Zhang Hao's face, Uncle Ge seemed to realize that he had said the wrong thing, and hurriedly said, "Young master, the old slave didn't mean that. You also know that a person's soul must be fifteen years old to fully mature, and at that time it will be determined whether a person has the qualifications to become an illusionist, so don't worry too much, maybe your soul is not strong enough now. ”

Although Uncle Ge knew in his heart that with the existence of the head of the Zhang family, he was completely sure that Zhang Hao would not have the chance to become an illusionist in his life, but Uncle Ge still didn't want to hit the young man in front of him, so he opened his mouth to comfort.

Zhang Hao grinned, came to this dalu and learned about that magical cultivation method, he also aspired to become an illusionist, but if it really didn't work, then he would never be particularly depressed, because he still had the Earth Pole Fist and could follow his own path of cultivation.

"Uncle Ge, don't comfort me. Let's go, Uncle Menghai pulls his face all day long, he doesn't like to talk to people, and now he can learn more about cultivation knowledge through winter training. ”

Zhang Hao stopped the fat man, smiled easily, looked at Uncle Ge, and said, "Uncle Ge, where is the location of the winter training?"

"The location is in the grain field of our village, where the site is quite large. In the past two years, more than a dozen villages have pooled money to buy some cultivation equipment, and they are always there for winter and summer training. Hearing Zhang Hao ask this kind of question again, Uncle Ge answered while leading the way, but he felt a little strange in his heart.

Because Uncle Ge always felt that Zhang Hao and Zhao Lan were like different people during this time, and they seemed to be very unfamiliar with the village and everything. Recalling that when his son saw the Crymon and the Garo Beast (similar to pigs) three months ago, he was frightened and jumped up and down, Uncle Ge slapped his forehead and drove out the strange thoughts in his heart.

Along the way, Zhang Hao saw the most smiling faces, the villagers were either holding bowls, or holding children, or standing together and laughing.

"Uncle Ge, I found that the villagers of our Wuyun Village are living very happily. Zhang Hao said.

"Well, it's not bad, Brother Menghai is an illusionist and his status is relatively noble, so he has a good relationship with some small chambers of commerce in Xihe City. Every year when winter comes, there will be a shortage of food in the village, so he takes everyone up to the mountains to hunt and even capture low-level monsters, and sell the fur of the prey or some important things on the monsters to the Chamber of Commerce in exchange for food, and distribute them door to door, since he came to Wuyun Village, few villagers have starved to death, but what the young master sees is the surface, these villagers are actually very afraid of Brother Menghai in their hearts. Uncle Ge replied.

"Is that old bull so good?" said the fat man on the side with some disdain on his face.

"Oops. ”

Uncle Ge stretched out his hand and slapped the fat man hard, and said angrily: "If our family hadn't taken care of Uncle Menghai all these years, would we be able to live like this? ”

"Cut...... It's still my old man, my elbows are always turned out. The fat man rubbed his head and muttered.

But saying that, in fact, the fat man also knows through the understanding of the past few months that Menghai has indeed helped them a lot, after all, Zhao Lan and Zhang Hao are outsiders, and they have no land to plant, and they usually rely on raising some poultry and Uncle Ge to go out hunting, barely enough to live.

However, Menghai usually hunts outside to exchange money, and often sends life things to Zhang Hao's family, so this burly man makes Uncle Ge and Zhao Lan very grateful.

A few people talked while walking, and after a while, they arrived at their destination, a large square where Wuyun Village usually collects grain.

As far as the eye could see, there were already twenty or thirty young boys and girls standing in several rows neatly. Seeing this, Uncle Ge explained: "Young master, you can go with Xiaopang, Brother Menghai's teaching is very strict, and the family is generally not allowed to go." ”

After speaking, Uncle Ge seemed to remember something, and advised: "A few days ago was a theory class, you can listen to it carefully, and then start physical exercise for two months." Menghai is bull temper, the young master should still remember the last time you and Xiaopang participated in this kind of training for the first time, signed up to receive physical exercise, and finally insisted on it for two weeks, you refused to go again. Then he was dragged away from home by Brother Meng, if it weren't for the lady and the old slave begging bitterly, hey...... So, after listening to the theory class this time, you can come back directly with Chubby, you are too young, and the intensity of the training is too great, so don't suffer those sins. ”

"Forehead ......"

Hearing this, Zhang Hao couldn't help but feel embarrassed, he didn't expect that his previous self was such a pampered master, he nodded with a wry smile, and said: "Uncle Ge, I know, I will do what I can with the fat brother, and I won't ask for trouble." ”

Uncle Ge nodded with a smile and said, "Okay, then the old slave will go back first to help Madame build an earthen circle in the courtyard to raise the Crying Beast." ”

After watching Uncle Ge finish speaking, he nodded slightly, turned around and walked away, Zhang Hao glanced at the fat man next to him, and said, "Fat brother, it seems that we used to be two wretched." ”

"Cut ......" The fat man pursed the corners of his lips and said disdainfully: "Fat brother thinks there's nothing wrong with being a wreck?"

"Rub. ”

The fat man's natural appearance fell in Zhang Hao's eyes, and he couldn't help but feel a strong sense of admiration......
