Chapter 4: Ordinary Trials
Jiang Ji suppressed the urge to use the trial order immediately, and began to exercise with the stone lock, hoping to master his strength as soon as possible.
After all, the trial depends on oneself, and if you can't control your own strength, it may be bad when the time comes.
In the next few days, Jiang Ji went to the dock to carry a big bag as usual, and behaved as usual.
But in reality he was much more relaxed than before.
"Granny Mu, I came back from buying vegetables, you can cook it, and then we will eat it together, and this is a little date. ”
Jiang Ji can also cook himself, but every day when he comes back for this dinner, he eats with Granny Mu.
In addition to being lonely because of eating alone, there is also the desire to take care of Granny Mu.
Every time he came back in the evening, he would bring some vegetables, buy some fish today, buy some meat tomorrow, and improve the food.
If Jiang Ji directly gave the fish and meat to Granny Mu, she would definitely not accept it, but under the pretext of eating together, she couldn't object.
"You kid, how many times have you said it, don't waste money on this old woman for me, it's not easy for you to make money, it's better to save the money and marry a daughter-in-law in a few years. ”
Jiang Ji smiled slightly: "You have said it so many times, don't say it, I don't miss this money, you can eat it with peace of mind, I am happy when you eat it." ”
Mother-in-law Mu was helpless on her face, but she was very happy in her heart, she also knew that she couldn't talk about Jiang Ji, so she didn't continue, turned around and took the dishes to the kitchen.
Jiang Ji also followed in and made a move.
After dinner, Jiang Ji returned to his home.
First lit a stick of incense, and then Jiang Ji focused his attention on his mind again.
It's been five days since the last talent trial, and Jiang Ji has already mastered the strength of his body, so he wants to try what this rest of the ordinary trials are like.
After Jiang Ji chose to go through the trial, the trial order radiated a dazzling light.
Then he felt a great suction force from the trial order, a tearing pain entering his mind, and his whole body seemed to become empty all at once.
But before he could react, he seemed to have entered a strange space in an instant, and in front of him were clusters of light emitting different lights.
Under the effect of the trial order, Jiang Ji only felt that he had instantly come to a light cluster that was completely white and had a little red light entangled, and then plunged into it.
"Hiss~"
Jiang Ji covered his head and felt a heart-piercing pain, and this pain came and went quickly.
"What is this place?"
He looked around and found himself in the grass, and then a wave of memories flooded into his mind.
"Su Ming, fourteen years old, fled with the people in the village, and wanted to go to Shaolin Temple to join a clan uncle, but he met robbers on the way, and everyone who fled with him was killed......"
Jiang Ji stood up and saw corpses on the road not far from the grass where he was, and the death was quite miserable.
Even though he had expected it a long time ago, Jiang Ji still felt his stomach tumble for a while, and sour water gushed out of his mouth.
"Vomit ......"
After a while, Jiang Ji eased up, sniffed the smell of blood, tried his best to suppress his adverse reactions, and turned his attention to the next action.
From Su Ming's few memories, Jiang Ji knew that the people in their village had left their hometown because of the military disaster, and he didn't know what was going on, but at least he knew the reason.
"There was news from the trial order that the trial lasted for three months and there were no requirements, so I just wanted to live.
But the world now seems to be in turmoil, how can I survive in such a situation as I am now?"
Jiang Ji's current body is the body of the young man named Su Ming, because of long-term malnutrition, his face is yellow and thin, thin and thin, and his strength naturally does not have much.
It is not easy for such a teenager to survive in the chaos.
"Now the only way is to go to the uncle in the Shaolin Temple, and according to the villagers, this Shaolin Temple has martial arts, and the monks in it are very powerful.
Although I don't know if it's true, but now this is the best place to go, and by the way, I can also find out if there is really martial arts, and if there is, find a way to learn martial arts.
I wonder what would happen if I died in this world?"
Jiang Ji shook his head, walked out of the grass, looked at the dozen or so corpses on the ground, endured fear and disgust, and bowed to them.
Then he looked around, and saw a relatively large pit not far from the grass he had just come out of.
So he dragged the corpses into the pit with great difficulty.
Speaking of these people, one person is only about 100 pounds at most, and the reason why he is so struggling, in addition to his physical foundation, is that his stomach is empty now, and his hands and feet are weak.
But if these corpses are left unchecked, they will surely be eaten by wild beasts.
Jiang Ji thought to himself that he had occupied Su Ming's body, and it was also appropriate to help cover up the remains of his fellow villagers.
After putting the corpses into the pit, Jiang Ji continued to move the scattered stones and clods around to cover up the corpses.
When the work was over, Jiang Ji felt that he was too tired to do anything, and sat on the ground, constantly wheezing.
"Uncles and aunts, big brothers and sisters, I have also done my best, I can only do this to this extent, you can rest in peace. ”
Recovering some strength a little, Jiang Ji was about to get up and walk in the direction of Shaolin Temple, and heard from the villagers that this place was not far from Shaolin Temple.
"Huh, is this the sound of horses' hooves?"
Jiang Ji, who still felt some soreness in his body, crawled and quickly drilled into the grass.
Jiang Ji shrank in the grass and didn't dare to move, looking through the gap in the weeds in the direction where the sound of horses' hooves came from.
In a few moments, four or five horses approached, and immediately they were all shiny, bald heads.
After seeing the people clearly, Jiang Jizheng was hesitant to go out, and saw them stop near where he was.
"Phew, there's a strong smell of blood, and the dirt and rocks seem to have just been refurbished, huh?"
The leading monk suddenly rose from his horse, and then swooped down like a big bird, and the air flow blew the weeds, revealing Jiang Ji, who was a little stunned.
"It turned out to be a child. ”
When the monk saw Jiang Ji's appearance, he immediately withdrew his hand, and a backflip landed in front of Jiang Ji.
Seeing Jiang Jizhi looking at him stunned, the monk thought that he was frightened by himself, he touched his bald head, revealing a smile that he thought was friendly but was actually vicious.
"Son, why are you here?"
Jiang Ji came back to his senses from the surprise of discovering martial arts, his heart tightened, and then his expression changed, and he told the truth of the matter with tears in his eyes.
Of course, it was just Su Ming's experience, and the fact that he escaped by hiding in the grass and burying his body.
The monk reached out and touched Jiang Ji's head: "Good boy, you are really good, I am the clan uncle you are looking for, alas, I am still a step late." ”
