Two years later, on the twentieth day of the lunar month, the weather was light and snowy, and on this day, Shan Liang went out of the customs.

On the path of cultivation, the slower you go to the later stages of cultivation, especially in the current era of the end of the Dharma. On the premise of not relying on external forces, in the past two years, Shan Liang has only just reached the peak of the late stage of Qi refining under the condition of almost semi-retreat, and when he cultivates upward, he seems to have touched the ceiling, and there is an invisible obstacle blocking his way forward.

Looking at the snowflakes falling outside the window, Shan Liang retracted his thoughts and said to himself: "Two years have passed like this, and in two days it will be a small year, and now it is only two months away from the time of the big change." It's better to go home first. ”

Rest house, the third unit of the second building, here is basically the base camp of Shan Liang now, except for the first and second floors where the original retired cadres live, the remaining third to ninth floors are bought by the eight brothers of Shan Liang, and Shan Liang's parents live in the east house on the fifth floor 501.

The single father and mother who were watching TV heard the sound of the door opening and hurriedly greeted it, just in time to meet the single beam who entered the door.

"Ah Liang, why are you back?" Seeing Shan Liang go home, Shan Liang's face was full of surprise, Shan Liang has been in retreat in the name of research for the past two years, rarely going home in the mountains, single father and single mother from the beginning to now slowly get used to it, now seeing Shan Liang suddenly go home can't help but ask suspiciously.

"Yes, have you done your research?" said Shan Liang, who had changed his slippers.

"Oh, the research is over now, isn't it about the New Year, I'm going home to accompany you for the New Year. Shan Liang said, after changing his slippers.

"But don't, you, a busy man, will be kind enough to go home to accompany us for the New Year? Last year, the phone was turned off when I called you, if it wasn't for Yufeng saying that you were on the mountain, we wouldn't know where to find you. "For last year's Chinese New Year, Shan Liang did not go home, and the single mother is still full of resentment.

"Ouch my mom, didn't it happen to be a critical time last year, you see that I'm not coming back early now, is it okay to dissipate my anger?" Seeing his mother's resentful appearance, Shan Liang hurriedly admitted his mistake.

"Hmph, you said that your barren mountain is also your own, you don't even have a laboratory or anything, don't you say when you have a holiday, don't you go home for the New Year, do you feel that your wings are hard, if we don't live here now, I think you're talking nonsense. "The single mother is still there and not angry.

"Although I don't have a laboratory there, I'm like a laboratory myself, after all, I'm doing human experiments, haven't you seen a lot of books in my room. Shan Liang still coaxed with a hippie smile.

"Hey, are you bullying you, are you not literate and ill-informed, those are all books from the Xuanmen, what does it have to do with your study of the human body. ”

"The books in the Xuanmen are also very valuable for research, don't you see that the Book of Mountains and Seas has been confirmed all over the world that the species in the book have prototypes. Monogon pretended not to be convinced by the airway.

"Okay, okay, I said Ah Liang's, don't you see that all schools are starting to teach this knowledge now, which shows that what Ah Liang said is still very reasonable, don't be angry anymore." The single father persuaded from the side.

"Hey, are these things being taught in schools now?" Shan Liang said curiously when he heard Shan Father's words.

"Yes, I heard that classes have been held in schools since the second half of the year before last, what is it called classical culture and classical philosophy, our former neighbor Your Aunt Liu's grandson has just entered elementary school this year and has been learning since the first grade, and I don't know what the use of this is. The single mother was angry after two sentences of Shan Liang, and when she heard Shan Liang's question, she said, and the single father and mother moved to the rest house and did not cut off the contact with the former neighbors.

"It will be useful later. "Shan Liang is not too surprised, and it can even be said to be expected, but then again, this phenomenon is still contributed by Shan Liang himself, but I don't know that Ouchi will have such a great implementation effort.

"I don't know what the use it will be anyway, by the way, I'm hungry at this point, right?" asked the single mother after muttering a sentence.

"No, I've already eaten on the road, and it's a small year in two days, is there anything you haven't prepared yet?" said Shan Liang.

"It's been ready for a long time, and when you care about the daylily, it's already cold. Shan Mu said with a white look.

......

In the evening, the eight brothers came to room 901 on the ninth floor, this house was simply renovated, except for eight futons in the living room, the other rooms were all piled up with materials that had been prepared in the past two years.

"How is it, are you all ready?" asked as he watched the seven-person single beam sit on the futon.

"After two years of preparation, they are basically ready, except for this living room, the two rooms on the ninth floor are full of materials, oil, salt, sauce and vinegar, needles and threads, rice, noodles, meat and vegetables, and even honeycomb coal and gas canisters. Hu Yufeng said.

"Well, to be honest, I don't have anything to worry about these things, you have also learned the Songfeng Sword and the Tiandun Sword, but is your family safe here?" Hearing Hu Yufeng's words, Shan Liang nodded and said.

"The fences on the windows of several of our houses are welded with solid steel bars, and the real materials are also used in the decoration of the home, so it can be said that as long as it is at home, safety is still guaranteed. Zhang Zhenbao continued.

"What's going on outside, I haven't really come down the mountain in the past two years, Xingbang let's talk about it. Hearing Zhang Zhenbao's words, Shan Liang nodded and said.

"It's okay, it is said that in the past two years, Huaxia has also accumulated a large number of various materials, energy, food, minerals, etc., which has caused some foreign countries to talk about who we are preparing to go to war with, but it has made some countries hostile to us nervous. After Ma Xingbang finished speaking, several people smiled, obviously having heard about it.

"Now the pace of urbanization in various places has also accelerated, merging some natural villages, moving into towns, taking our local area as an example, now we have also built some communities, and some surrounding mountain villages close to mountains and forests have been moved into towns. Now some Xuanmen classics are being taught in schools, which are called classical culture and classical philosophy. ”

"I heard from a classmate of mine who was a soldier that now the army has begun to learn some Xuanmen classics, and I heard that some other soldiers have been selected to start learning ancient martial arts, but this matter is all 'said' and has not been confirmed. Zhou Qiang said.

"Well, these things were discussed together when I was in the capital at that time, are there any other things?" Shan Liang asked again when he heard this.

"There's a gossip that I don't know if counts?" Zhang Fang said with some uncertainty.

"What's the news? It's all our own people, let's talk about it, it's nothing, whether it's gossip or confirmed, it's all for us to live a better life after the big changes come in the future, and it's okay to say something wrong. Shan Liang smiled at Zhang Fang and said.

"That's right, I recently saw on the Internet that it was about the reform of zoos to promote the harmonious development of people and animals, some people said that some zoos have recently begun to quietly release many animals in the park back to the mountains and forests, but on the surface, they are actually secretly killed, it is said that there are many such posts on the Internet, which have just been deleted by harmony. Zhang Fang organized the language and said.

"Secretly killed?" Shan Liang muttered the word, if this news is true, it should be to prevent these animals from eating humans after the big change, but this news may also be fake, anyway, it is normal for the rumors on the Internet to be true or false and unpredictable.

"Ah Liang, we have been preparing for the return of this so-called Lingqi for the past two years, can we really be sure of the accuracy of this news?" Zhang Zhenguo asked Shan Liang, since Shan Liang released the news two years ago, the eight brothers have been preparing for this matter one after another, but as the time approached, there was no vision, and some of the eight people finally began to doubt the truth of this matter.

Shan Liang didn't answer this question out loud, but got up and came to the window of the living room to look at the quiet night outside, looking at Shan Liang's actions, the seven brothers couldn't help but look at each other a little and didn't know what Shan Liang was thinking. It seems that the seven people are more or less skeptical of Shan Liang's judgment, but it is only because they trust Shan Liang's people that they do not open their mouths to question it.

Shan Liang looked at the night outside and understood the thoughts of the seven people in his heart, and said in a flat tone: "Actually, I don't want this matter to be true, if there is no Lingqi return, or if I am not worried that my parents and you will be hurt in the future, I will not go down the mountain, let alone join the special bureau of Laoshizi, with my own support of Qinghui Mountain, even if Lingqi returns to the world and changes greatly, I can live freely." ”

Shan Liang smiled self-deprecatingly and continued: "Although I am now living in Qinghui Mountain, I am not a monk after all. To be honest, I also hope that I can miscalculate, there is no such thing as the return of Lingqi, but the heavens do not follow people's wishes, as for whether the return of Lingqi is true, it is only two or three months away, and then everything will be clear. ”

"That, it's not that I don't believe you, it's just ......" Zhang Zhenguo had a somewhat curtled explanation, but was interrupted by Shan Liang waving his hand, "Believe it or doubt it, none of this matters, there are some things I can't tell you, otherwise it will cause trouble for you, but I still hope you can believe me this time, besides, I have been prepared for two years, do you care about the time of two or three months." ”
