In the blink of an eye, it was the thirtieth year of the Chinese New Year's Eve.

Xu thought that they would be separated after the year, and this year's Chinese New Year's Eve, Lu Yuan still spent it with Sun Siwen.

The two raised wine and drank and blessed each other, but this time it was not the same as last year, and they were drunk.

It's just a few drinks.

On Chinese New Year's Eve, they lit firecrackers again, and together with the residents of the town, they crossed the New Year lively.

In the end, Sun Siwen took out the fireworks he bought from Fucheng and set off the brilliant fireworks under the silent night sky.

When the fireworks went off, the sounds of children screaming and excited could be heard outside. In the countryside, they had never seen such a splendid scenery, and they couldn't help but shout.

Those parents, perhaps also stunned by this scene, only cared about enjoying the fireworks, but did not stop it.

So the town, which had quieted down a little from the sound of firecrackers, became lively again.

When a few boxes of fireworks were set off and a dozen taels of silver were burned out, the night was not immediately calm, but it was noisy for a while, and then the children were quiet with the shouting and scolding of the parents.

At night, it becomes quiet.

The next day, Lu Yuan and Sun Siwen had a meal in the morning, and then congratulated the New Year before returning to their home.

Everyone is at home on the first day of junior high school. In the second and third years of junior high school, I began to visit relatives and friends.

In the fourth year of junior high school, after visiting a few important people, Sun Siwen found Lu Yuan and began to say goodbye.

There is less than a month left before he joins the academy. The location is far away in other counties, so I have to leave in advance at this time.

Lu Yuan sent Sun Siwen to debut five miles outside the town, and then turned back.

Although I said before, I will visit when I have time on a different day.

But he knew in his heart that the so-called different day would be five or six years away at the earliest.

With such a poor living environment in today's society, I really don't know if I can see you again if I say goodbye today.

……

After sending his only friend to his post, Lu Yuan once again returned to his previous state of being alone. Without the disturbance of external objects, all his thoughts were devoted to martial arts.

Every day, after waking up, the schedule is arranged like this.

Practice for an hour in the morning, then eat breakfast, and then spend another hour drinking tea and reading.

At noon, I went to the tavern to listen to the news, took a nap for half an hour when I came back, woke up and practiced the internal skills for two hours, practiced the palm technique for another hour, and then we could eat.

At night, you can practice internal skills for another hour, read a book for a while, and then go to sleep.

In this way, Lu Yuan's life and rest were carried out in strict accordance with these schedules.

As for the old craft hunting?

The 1,000 taels of silver earned last year, after spending a year, there are still more than 800 taels left. At the current pace of spending money, it will be spent in three or four years.

Therefore, without the financial crisis, he has little incentive to hunt.

Silver, just enough for now.

Although Lu Yuan also really wanted to live that kind of extravagant life, it was all after he had achieved great success and became famous.

At the current stage of struggle, he can still endure some difficulties.

Isn't there a saying that says?

First bitter and then sweet.

Now it is bitter, and when the bitterness passes, it is time to enjoy the sweetness.

Lu Yuan has this perseverance.

……

Spring goes to autumn, winter passes the summer solstice.

Lu Yuan is still nested in Yangmei Town, except for going to the county every few months to replenish some medicinal materials, he has been an otaku on weekdays.

Sometimes, after two or three months, he could also receive a few letters from Sun Siwen, in which in addition to greetings, there were also complaints and complaints from this new scholar.

The territory of Dongting County is mountainous, and it is known as the saying of seven mountains, two rivers and one field.

As you can tell, this is not a rich place.

And so it is.

After our Lord Sun Xueyu took office, he knew what kind of place Changning County was where he was.

There's a saying that goes like that. The more something is missing, the more it is important to emphasize.

Changning Changning is said to be always peaceful.

But in fact, there are barbarians everywhere here, and there are groups of native people, and from time to time there are troubles among the people, and the folk customs are extremely strong.

In such a place, Sun Siwen's difficulties can be imagined.

When he went to the county school, he counted all the students who were enrolled, and the result was that there were no more than 100 literate people in the county. Among them, there are more than ten talents, and there is no one.

What is this concept?

Take Dayu County as an example.

Dayu County is already a remote and poor county in Yuzhang County. But in the whole county, there are still four or five hundred students, although there are few people, but there are also three or two.

Compared with Changning County, I don't know how much stronger.

Sun Siwen is in such a place where his literary style is withering, and he is also a scholar in charge of academic administration, so you can imagine how difficult it will be to advance the work.

Anyway, looking at the complaints in the letters he sent, I knew that my friend was living an extremely hard life.

In this regard, Lu Yuan could only reply to ridicule a few words, and then comforted him.

Reading letters every few months is just an adjustment in life.

Lu Yuan's life on weekdays is still quite dull and boring, but fortunately, he is also used to it, and there is nothing unacceptable about it.

Such a dull day, two years have passed in the blink of an eye.

……

On this day, it is the beginning of summer again.

Thunderstorms in the night sky outside the window, rumbling.

The first thunderstorm since the beginning of summer was particularly thrilling.

The candlelight flickered in the house, the wind outside found the gap between the doors and windows, and the candle flame flickered, fluttering one after another, making people worry about whether it would be extinguished directly in the next moment.

Lu Yuan sat cross-legged on the bed, his eyes slightly closed, his hands in his abdomen, the internal force in his body surged, and the heart method of Liuyun Palm urged to the extreme, impacting the steady meridians in front of him like waves.

Time flows slowly.

In an instant, the thunder outside had stopped, but the rain was still falling, crackling and smashing on the roof tiles, making a clattering sound.

Lu Yuan is still exercising.

Time seemed to him to mean nothing.

Finally.

It was almost early in the morning, and he had been exercising for two hours, his two arms trembled slightly, and the surging internal force in his body was no longer blocked, pouring into the dantian from between his arms, and converging in one place.

"Finally broke through."

With his closed eyes open, Lu Yuan felt a lot of internal force growing in his body, and he couldn't suppress the smile on his face.

The divine consciousness sank into his mind, and at this time, the content of the attribute panel had changed.

[Name: Lu Yuan]

【Talent: Immortality】

[Age: 20]

[Realm: The day after tomorrow (third-rate)]

【Martial Arts: Liuyun Palm (2nd Layer)】

[Skill: Hunting Trap (Perfect) Simple Knife Technique (Perfection) Humble Archery (Perfection) Medical Skill (Xiaocheng) ......]

After three years of hard training, to this day, he has finally practiced the two meridians, broken through the second layer of the Liuyun Palm, and reached the third-rate realm on the rivers and lakes.

"It's a great joy and it's worth celebrating."

Lu Yuan couldn't help but laugh and got up from the bed, feeling very happy in his heart.

Who can understand the happiness that he has been practicing martial arts for three years, and after suffering all the hardships, he has finally been promoted from a nameless non-entry martial artist to a third-rate martial artist?

That sense of accomplishment is really crazy.

But it's late at night, and it's raining heavily. Even if his heart is restless, he can't do anything else.

In the end, I had to take out the home-brewed wine, fry a plate of side dishes by myself, and eat it beautifully.

"Wait for tomorrow...... Well, when the rain stops tomorrow, I'll go to Fucheng again. I haven't been to the Red Sleeves Pavilion to find Miss Xiaoyu for two years, and I don't know if she's still there? ”

After eating a small dish and drinking a glass of wine, Lu Yuan squinted at the wind and rain outside, and his heart had long since flown away.
