Chapter 10 Charcoal in the Snow
Zhao Yunfei wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, saw that Xiao Ji was muttering a dream, sleeping very sweetly, looking at the roof, he didn't see any holes, turned his head to look out the window, the moonlight in the courtyard was like water, cold and deserted, where was there a dragon, but the strange thing was that the place on his arm that had been burned by fire in the dream was a little faintly painful.

This nightmare was so real that Zhao Yunfei didn't dare to fall asleep again for a while, he was not a timid person, and he wouldn't say a word no matter how much damage was inflicted on him, but he couldn't bear the harm of his relatives, especially his sister Xiaoji, who depended on him for his life.
Through the bright moonlight, he could see that the wall clock on the wall pointed to four o'clock, Zhao Yunfei had no intention of sleeping again, got up quietly, got dressed and got off the kang, did not turn on the light, and stepped on the bench to touch the knife hidden on the top of the big wardrobe, and the tentacles felt a little warm.
"It's hot, this knife is so strange!" Zhao Yunfei took off the knife, his eyes were fixed on the knife, and he saw that the entire knife body was emitting a faint golden light, these lights were not obvious in the day or under the light, but it was very eye-catching in the dark, and the sixteen traditional characters were clearly visible under the knife light.
"Can it still shine?" Zhao Yunfei was very shocked, trying to suppress his breathing, which had become a little heavy from shock, and gently opened the door and walked out of the house with a knife.
Looking at the golden knife again in the moonlight, questions about the material of the knife came to mind again.
"What kind of metal is this knife made of?" Although Zhao Yunfei was very eager to know, he also knew that it was best not to show this golden knife to others, otherwise it might cause unnecessary trouble, although he was not very old, but he was still very clear about the truth of "Pifu is not guilty, and he is guilty", he has secretly decided in his heart that even Han Tuo and Li Lanfang can't tell the true situation of this knife, if Han Tuo asks, he can only tell him that it is sold as scrap iron.
Thinking of the terrible nightmare just now, a trace of uneasiness lingered in Zhao Yunfei's heart, he didn't believe in superstition, he didn't believe in anything baseless, but this dream was too real, too terrible, he clearly remembered that the dragon in the dream had mentioned the dragon slaying knife, could it be that the knife he got was the dragon slaying knife that had long been lost in ancient times? No wonder the dragon was so jealous of this knife in his words, the dragon slaying knife, a tool for killing dragons......
However, are there still dragons in the world today?
Zhao Yunfei shook his head, noncommittal to what he was thinking, held the handle of the knife with both hands, and waved it a few times at will, the light emitted by the blade of the knife was intertwined into a golden light curtain, which was very dazzling.
Zhao Yunfei hurriedly stopped his movements, looked nervously at the wall, and thought to himself: "It's so golden, try not to take it out in the future, in case it is seen by others, it will be troublesome." Thinking of this, he immediately turned back into the house, put the knife back on the top of the cabinet, and pressed it with the torn mat.
Xiao Ji called "brother" in his sleep, then turned over, the sheet slipped off his body, Zhao Yunfei walked to the kang and re-covered the sheet for Xiao Ji.
Looking at his sister's quiet and immature face, Zhao Yunfei suddenly felt a sense of powerlessness in his heart, perhaps affected by that nightmare, he felt that he didn't seem to have the strength to protect his relatives.
The uneasy feeling seemed to press a boulder against his chest, making him feel as if he was breathless.
After being stunned for a few seconds, Zhao Yunfei shook his head vigorously and said secretly: "If you don't have strength, then practice strength!"
At this time, before dawn, Zhao Yunfei came to the yard, washed his face with cold water a few times, and then, as usual, ran a few laps in the yard to let his body move completely, and then came to the two red bricks placed at the base of the west wall, leaned down, pressed his hands on the two bricks and began to do push-ups.
Zhao Yunfei secretly counted in his heart, and easily did it a hundred times.
Standing up, a thought suddenly flashed in his mind: "If you practice like this every day, you won't make much progress, so it's better to increase the difficulty......"
"Well, try how many times you can do it in one breath!"
This thought immediately aroused his competitive spirit, and he did what he said, only to see him take a deep breath, hold back, lean down, and do it seriously one by one.
When he did it thirty times, he felt that his chest was very uncomfortable, and it seemed that he could not hold on anymore, but he still tried his best to do it five more times, and at this time the breath could no longer be held, and a "whew" spewed out.
Standing up straight and taking a few quick breaths, Zhao Yunfei unexpectedly found that his breathing was much smoother, at least not as boring as just now.
"There is still such an effect!" Zhao Yunfei was surprised, and he couldn't help but feel a little happy in his heart.
Doing 35 push-ups in one breath, he is actually not satisfied with this result, with his usual exercise results, 100 push-ups are easy, but under the restriction of one breath, he only did 35 times, which has nothing to do with physical strength, but a matter of lung capacity.
"Tomorrow, I must do it thirty-eight times in one breath. Zhao Yunfei secretly made up his mind.
Speaking of exercise, in fact, many boys have a fanatical interest in exercise at a certain age, Zhao Yunfei was also like this when he was young, influenced by those martial arts film and television dramas, and had some unrealistic fantasies, hoping that by practicing martial arts, he could punch a thousand pounds of stones out like a martial arts master on TV, and jump on a high tree.
Today, Zhao Yunfei has come to understand that the so-called "martial arts" on television, which are completely uncontrolled by the earth's gravity and the laws of physics, are totally unreasonable, and are pure nonsense; a single punch can knock a large stone weighing a thousand pounds far away, so where does the reaction force go? If it can really exert such a great force, the first thing that is knocked out should be an object with a much smaller mass -- a person, not a heavy stone; a slight leap can leap onto a thin branch and rise and fall with the wind. If a branch as thin as chopsticks could really bear the weight of an adult, then theoretically it would be able to fly with a pair of wings, and in that case, wouldn't the world be full of birdmen?
The fantasies of childhood can't withstand the precipitation of time, and there are very few children who can really stick to the exercise, and Zhao Yunfei is just one of these few children.
The reason why Zhao Yunfei was able to insist on exercising was not because he was talented or had any expert advice, but mainly because of his own tenacious personality and his special family.
Children from normal families are bullied, and they can always be protected and comforted by their parents, but Zhao Yunfei not only has to face provocations alone, but also has to protect his younger sister.
For a child without parental protection, it is undoubtedly more vulnerable to injury and bullying, Zhao Yunfei's insistence on exercising is the need to improve his self-protection ability, it can be said that he has no choice.
Zhao Yunfei's original intention of exercising was to make himself physically strong, so that he had the strength not to be bullied, after a period of exercise, his idea was diluted, but the exercise itself can bring him a sense of pleasure and confidence, so that he can't stop, and later he learned from books that people will produce a substance called endorphins in the process of exercising, which can make people feel happy.
In fact, there are many benefits of exercise, not only to strengthen the body, pleasure the body and mind, but also to change people's external image and enhance people's internal temperament, take the most simple and easy push-ups, through one end of the time exercise, people's chest muscles, arm muscles and abdominal muscles will become stronger, fat decrease, muscle increase, wear clothes will naturally look tall and good-looking.
Push-ups also have the benefit of speeding up blood circulation in the face of a volt that can especially promote blood circulation in the face, so that the person will look radiant and radiant.
As long as you can persist for a period of time, these benefits will inevitably be experienced, and the key is two words - persistence!
Zhao Yunfei's physique is lean, exercise and heavy agricultural labor, so that his strength is hidden in the muscles and bones, but there are no particularly developed muscles on his body, and there is no excess fat, this kind of rapid figure makes him exude a masculine temperament all over his body, coupled with the angular face shape, it looks even more heroic.
......
Summer is the hottest time of the year, the day is only cooler before the sun comes out, and when the sun rises a little higher, it will be too hot to bear, so before the sun comes out, Zhao Yunfei finished some daily work, and the porridge for breakfast was also boiled out and dried in a ceramic basin.
The brother and sister had just finished breakfast, when the loudspeaker in the village sounded: "Attention villagers, attention villagers, a few days ago, the village was hit by a hailstorm, and the town issued a disaster relief fund, 300 yuan per person, and each household is now sending a representative to the village committee to receive the disaster relief money......;
The sound of the radio continued to echo over the village, Zhao Yunfei heard the broadcast, the mood can only be described with "heart blooming", is worried that there is no money in his hand, the town has issued disaster relief funds, so calculated, he and Xiao Ji's total has six hundred yuan, for Zhao Yunfei, this six hundred yuan is not a small amount, if all are exchanged for one yuan face value, there are six hundred, if there is no accident, this money can make Zhao Yunfei's brothers and sisters spend a year, this is simply a charcoal in the snow.
Zhao Yunfei instructed Xiao Ji to look after the house at home, and walked towards the village committee while thinking about it in his heart.
When I arrived at the village committee, there were already many people standing in the courtyard, and everyone was talking about the disaster relief funds, all of them smiling, some said that after receiving the money, they would immediately go to the market to buy meat, and stew a big pot to satisfy their hunger; some said that it was really not cost-effective for my family's small population, and that I had to have a second child if I said anything......
The village committee's accountant Wan called people in the house, and whoever was called would enter the house to receive the money, and the morning chaos was finally over, and only Zhao Yunfei was left in the courtyard of the village committee......
