Chapter 11: Sharpening the Knife

There is no time in the mountains, and more than 20 days have passed in the blink of an eye.

During this time, Zhang Yun fished from the water when he was hungry, lit a fire and roasted it.

When you are thirsty, you pick up the water from the shallow stream to replenish your water.

Try not to sleep if you can, if you are really sleepy, then lean against the maple tree not far away and take a nap for two hours.

He seized all the time he could to meditate and practice.

For more than 20 days, Zhang Yun spent more than 20 days in hard training.

Although this kind of life is simple and monotonous, it is definitely not boring.

On the contrary, in these more than 20 days, Zhang Yun felt unprecedented fulfillment.

Every day he could clearly feel that he was getting stronger, and this change made him feel reassured.

Practicing so far, Zhang Yun punched over, and he could already leave a shallow fist mark on the trunk of the maple tree.

Bend your legs and jump up to five meters.

This was something he had never dared to imagine in the past.

If you return to Huangxi Township now, not to mention dominating a radius of 100 miles, it will no longer be a problem to be powerful and prosperous in the township.

I don't know when he already has the strength to stand in this world, at least enough to take root in the mortal world.

The existential crisis that haunted Zhang Yun's heart has been resolved.

Of course, the crazy cultivation brought not only benefits, as his physical strength became stronger and stronger, Zhang Yun's mental condition was deteriorating day by day.

After eating grilled fish for such a long time, Rao is Zhang Yun couldn't stand it anymore.

To use a vulgar saying, that is: the birds are about to fade out of their mouths.

Especially in the past two days, he feels uncomfortable anywhere.

Not to mention the extremely poor appetite, it is easy to regurgitate when eating, and vomit whatever you eat.

Not only that, but he now wants to sleep all day long, and this sleepiness can't be solved even by a long sleep.

There was really no way, Zhang Yun had to decide to go back and rest for a while, and then come over to practice when he was sure to rest.

"Let's go, today is the end of the day."

"Go back and go to Senior Sister Ruan to order something delicious, have a full meal, and ask for some white salt or something like that by the way."

"Then I'll go back to the house and get some sleep, and when I'm rested, I'll be fine."

Thinking of those delicious foods, Zhang Yun couldn't help but swallow his saliva, and his steps kept speeding up.

When reading "Shuo Wen Jie Zi", Zhang Yun saw the story of "sharpening knives and cutting wood".

Now he just wants to go back and sharpen his "knife".

……

"It's been almost a month, where did that little cub die?"

On the hillside opposite Yuxin Hall, Zhang Hu was lying in the snow and looked up in the direction of the deacon's house, his bloodshot eyes full of impatience and anxiety.

"I can't see anyone alive, I can't see a corpse when I die, is he dead or not?! Don't die in some corner, do you?! ”

According to Yuxintang's rules, missing persons will not be removed from the list of disciples until two months have passed.

Zhang Hu now hopes that Zhang Yun will not appear, but also hopes that he can come back soon, the contradictory mood and anxiety make Zhang Hu's whole person anxious and extremely impetuous.

"You be quiet, you're not the only one who is in a hurry here, where are you talking so much?"

Li Xiang's mood was also very bad, and he was not polite at all when he spoke.

But when he said this, it completely ignited Zhang Hu's fiery mood: "You still have a year, of course you are not in a hurry to do it, Lao Tzu will be kicked out in a few months, you said that you are next door?" ”

As soon as Li Xiang slapped the ground, he was about to stand up and confront Zhang Hu: "How are you talking?" Can you speak?! ”

"Shhhh Silence, someone is coming! ”

At this time, Li Yi's words interrupted the movements of the two.

The two people who saw that they were about to do it, as soon as they heard this, they immediately fell back, glared at each other, and looked at the street on the other side of Yuxintang.

……

"Xiaoyun has seen Senior Sister Ruan, it's been a long time, Senior Sister."

In front of the deacon's house, Zhang Yunqiang cheered up and squeezed out a smiling face for Senior Sister Ruan.

When Ruan Yuling saw him, she was stunned for a moment, and after a long time, she seemed to recognize him as Zhang Yun, covering her mouth and exclaiming: "Huh? Are you Zhang Yun? Are you alright? ”

"Huh? Should I be okay? ”

Zhang Yun was also stunned, what do you mean I'm fine, why does this sound so awkward?

"No, no, no, I didn't mean that."

Ruan Yuling also reacted at this time, her palm kept fanning her flushed cheeks, and she explained embarrassedly: "I mean I haven't seen you for a long time, senior sister is very worried, it's good to see that you're okay." ”

An eleven-year-old child has been missing in the ice and snow for nearly a month, and everyone would think that he has been killed, right?

Thinking so in her heart, Ruan Yuling felt less embarrassed, and when she heard Zhang Yun say "I made my senior sister worried", she hurriedly waved her hand: "It's okay, it's okay." ”

Zhang Yun didn't think about it so much, he felt a little tired now, and he just wanted to go back and rest early.

"Senior sister." Zhang Yun scratched his head and said shyly: "I'm a little hungry, can you give me something to eat?" ”

"Huh? Yes! ”

Ruan Yuling was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly handed the bamboo basket containing food to Zhang Yun, "I've suffered a lot outside, let's take it and eat it." ”

"Thank you, senior sister."

"It's okay, it's a matter of duty."

Zhang Yun took it with both hands and sincerely thanked him.

Then he asked for some salt, carefully put it away, and left.

"I'll go back to sleep, and I'll see you when Senior Sister Ruan comes back."

"Well, see you later."

Looking at the closed courtyard gate not far away, Ruan Yuling's face showed a strange look.

It's really strange every year, and this year there are a lot of them.

What is the situation with this kid, he left the house as soon as he came, and he left for a month.

I thought I was dying somewhere, but it turned out to be back?

She has been here for more than ten years, and it is the first time she has seen such a maverick child.

Tsk, it seems that this is not an ordinary tenant of Tianzihao, and I am afraid that I will suffer if I am eyeing this kid.

Thinking of this, Ruan Yuling couldn't help but have a hint of expectation for Zhang Yun's future.

……

"It seems that this kid didn't run away, except for the owner of the yard, it is impossible for others to enter without the permission of the master."

Seeing Zhang Yun disappear into the courtyard of Tianzi No. 1 room, Li Xiang immediately made a judgment.

"Nonsense!" Zhang Hu scoffed, ignored Li Xiang's angry gaze, and sighed to himself: "I didn't expect him to come back alive, but it's okay, and it saves me from waiting for another month, which is a good thing." ”

As he spoke, Li Xiang's gaze at Zhang Hu became more and more fierce.

Li Yi quietly glanced at his brother, and when he saw Li Xiang retract his gaze, as if nothing had happened, Li Yi followed Zhang Hu's words naturally, and continued: "He just came back, I don't think he will come out for a while. ”

Saying that, Li Yi's eyes looked at Zhang Hu: "In this way, Brother Hu, you go back to prepare first, and come back when you are in good spirits, I will keep an eye on that kid here, and I will go to rest when you come back." ”
