Chapter 1150: I want to go and see
At the time of the autumn equinox, it is the harvest season, the endless rice fields are like gold paved with a ground, and the ears of rice bulge with big bellies, as if they are about to burst, and a gust of wind blows, which sets off bursts of golden waves.
However, it was a good harvest to celebrate, but there were people sitting on the edge of the fields, sighing and sighing.
"It's a loss, it's a miserable loss, why can't I endure it any longer? As long as I endure it for half a month, it's three hundred yuan, why can't I control it?"
It was Li Leper who spoke, although his leprosy had been cured, but others still called him Li Letou, after all, he had been called for thirty years, and these three words had become his status symbol, and it had nothing to do with whether he had leprosy or not, not to mention that everyone had forgotten his real name.
Blacksmith Zhang sat next to him, biting the cigarette stick in his mouth, smoking slowly, without accosting him, silently watching his second son cut rice in the field.
Zhang Blacksmith's second son is called Zhang Dagong, at the moment he is holding the true qi sickle in his hand, and is cutting rice in the field, I saw him bow down, gently wave the sickle in his hand, the true qi is injected into it, and it turns into a sharp energy released from the outside, with the rotation of the sickle, he easily cut a circle of rice around him, and Zhang Dagong also kept moving his position, wherever he went, where the rice fell, until the true qi in his body was exhausted, he handed the true qi sickle to his younger brother.
It has been six years since Xianmen taught their group of ordinary people the inner strength and mental method, and the second and third batches of teaching that were promised at the beginning have also been fulfilled as promised, and the second and third sons of Zhang Blacksmith have already enrolled in school.
The Immortal Sect divides the True Qi into six levels, and conducts an assessment once a year, and only if the minimum standards are met, can they be promoted, and until they reach the sixth level of True Qi in the last year, they will be graded and receive one hundred Six Dao Coins.
According to what the immortal chief who taught the Fa said, they did not deliberately make it difficult in the division of the true qi level, and the assessment requirements for each level were based on the level of an ordinary person who had the posture of a middle-aged person after one year of serious cultivation, so normal people could graduate as long as they had cultivated for six years.
Zhang Dagong's talent is ordinary, even worse than ordinary people, although he cultivates very hard, basically uses it to meditate whenever he has time, but he can keep up with the progress of others, and after four years of cultivation, he finally reached the passing line of the fourth level of True Qi.
The consumption of the true qi sickle is more than that of the true qi cultivator, with the total amount of true qi of Zhang Dagong, it can only be used for a quarter of an hour, and it will be exhausted after a quarter of an hour, and it needs to be meditated to recover, but with the help of the true qi sickle, his work for a quarter of an hour is comparable to the results of a whole day of work for the family in the past.
When the rice harvest of Zhang's blacksmith's family was completed, they lent the true qi sickle to the girl of Li Letou's family, and the girl also learned Zhang Dagong, urging True Qi, spinning like a strong wind, and quickly harvesting the rice, and the other villagers who were ranked behind Li Letou's house in order were all waiting eagerly.
In the entire village, only the blacksmith Zhang bought the True Qi Sickle, which was cheaper than the True Qi Cultivator, but it was also worth fifty coins and six coins, which was very precious.
Blacksmith Zhang was willing to lend to others, not because he was generous, but because he was not afraid of things being stolen at all, half a year ago, a family's true qi cultivator was stolen, and the family did not report to the official, but directly found the immortal chief who taught the exercises, and the things were found back that afternoon, and the thieves who stole things, the middlemen who sold the stolen goods and the final buyers were all wiped out, the first two were broken on the spot, and the family property was confiscated, and the latter was deprived of the quota for practicing internal strength.
Nowadays, the quota for cultivating internal strength is more important than that of Zhongxiucai, it is a major event related to a lifetime, the child has no internal strength, and he is afraid that he will not be able to raise his head and be a man in this life, so the buyer's mother-in-law divorced him the next day and took the child back to his parents' house, so as to keep the opportunity for the child to practice internal strength.
Unlike the government looking for stolen things, cultivators only need to pinch their fingers to calculate the ins and outs of the theft, where the things are, who is the person who handles them, and no one can escape.
For high-level monks, even if they have not practiced the method of divination in the past, it is enough to learn and use it now, because the object of calculation is ordinary people who do not have supernatural powers, and they have no ability to resist at all.
In the past, even if the stolen goods were found, the buyer could presume that he did not know about it, and the seller could pawn the stolen goods on behalf of others and do not know that it was stolen goods.
However, a practitioner who recovers the stolen goods will not tell you any legal evidence, saying that you are guilty, you are guilty, how can you waste your energy arguing with others, and directly arrest and execute.
This was a brutal but effective practice, and it deterred all the young people, and to this day, no one dares to take anything away from it, even if the owner throws it on the street.
"I knew that the six coins were so valuable, I shouldn't have sold them so early, and now I want to find someone to come back, but I can't find anyone, alas, why am I in such a hurry?"
Li Letou was still sighing on the side, he had been saying these words for three months, but he still hadn't said enough.
Although Blacksmith Zhang listened impatiently, he could still understand it in his heart, after all, this person lost more money than he could earn in this life.
Li Letou's eldest daughter successfully graduated this year and got a hundred Liudao coins, at that time, someone bought Liudao coins on the black market and bid ten yuan a piece, Li Letou originally wanted to take six coins to buy a real gas cultivator, and when he heard the exchange price, one hundred coins were enough to exchange for a thousand yuan, which was money that he could not earn in his life, even if he used the real qi cultivator to plant the land for a lifetime, the amount of money he could earn was only this amount, it was better to take the money directly.
So that night, he was moved, secretly concealed from his daughter and wife, found someone to trust the relationship, and went to the black market to exchange all the six coins.
This was supposed to be something to celebrate, but who would have expected that in the next few months, the black market price of Liudao coins would skyrocket, all the way from 10 to 30, a full triple!
This also means that Li Leper made twice as much money less, which made him not feel heartache, and after the matter was exposed, his family often complained that he made his own decisions, but it turned out to be a great joy that he earned a thousand times in vain, but it became a big tragedy, which made Li Leper talk about it all day long, and he was about to become an obstacle.
Later, I learned that the reason for the crazy rise in the price of the Six Dao Sect was that the old man of a rich man's family had a stroke and almost didn't survive it.
For rich people, the biggest regret is that people die and the money is not spent.
No matter how much money there is, if the life is too short and there is no time to enjoy it, it will be meaningless, so these rich people frantically buy six coins, hoping to buy some elixirs to cure diseases or prolong life.
But in addition to the hundred coins given by students when they graduated, there is no way to get them, and the tasks announced by the Six Dao Sect are only ordinary people can complete them, but since they are heavenly treasures, they are destined to be scarce, and they may not be able to find money, and in the case of deflation, the price of Liudao coins will naturally continue to rise, and today's thirty yuan is not the highest point.
After complaining a few words as always, Li Leper secretly glanced at Blacksmith Zhang, and then asked casually: "Blacksmith Zhang, has your sledgehammer come back?"
Blacksmith Zhang exhaled a puff of smoke and said slowly: "I sent a letter last month, saying that it was soon, and it is estimated that in just a few days, maybe I will come back tonight." ”
Speaking of his eldest son, Blacksmith Zhang was a little proud, this kid looked clumsy, but he was very talented in internal cultivation, not only graduated early, and reached the sixth level of True Qi in four years, but also was rated a first-class, rewarded double the six coins, and therefore the Blacksmith Zhang family was able to buy the True Qi Cultivator after buying the True Qi Cultivator.
Of course, these are secondary, and more importantly, the eldest son was selected to be sent to the blessed land of the Immortal Family for further study because of his excellent grades, and I heard that if he is lucky, he will have the opportunity to be accepted as a disciple of the Immortal Family.
As soon as this news came out, the status of Zhang's blacksmith family rose with it, and no matter who saw it, he had to be polite, and even the county magistrate often came to greet him.
However, Blacksmith Zhang did not get carried away because of this, he had a very good mentality, knowing that others respected his son, not him, only the mother was more expensive than the son, and there was no reason why the father was more expensive than the son.
It's also strange to say, his third son looks like a very clever person, he learns things faster than anyone else, but he has no talent in internal cultivation, and after two years of study, he can reach the standard of the first level of true qi, and he usually doesn't see him lazy, and I don't know what the reason is.
Stupid people learn quickly, but smart people learn slowly, which is really incomprehensible.
"Just these few days, your mouth is so tight, such a big thing, you seem to be nothing, my girl often talks about your sledgehammer, I tell her to go, so as not to miss it, and come to blame me again." Li Leper immediately got motivated, got up and walked towards his daughter.
Blacksmith Zhang shook his head, a little helpless to Li Letou's philistine, but he didn't say anything, after all, the villagers, what kind of person the other party is, he has already seen it clearly, Li Leper is nothing more than wanting to bring up the old things again, back then he almost proposed to Li Letou's girl for a sledgehammer, and later because of the matter of learning the internal strength of the heart from the immortal chief, it was delayed.
Nowadays, people who have daughters will not easily marry their daughters, at least not before their daughters graduate, you must know that once the sixth level of true qi graduates, you can get a hundred six coins, according to today's market price, this is 3,000 yuan, and the bride price of the eldest son of the landlord's family cannot afford this price!
In the past, you could marry your daughter at the age of thirteen or fourteen, and now it's not too late to be twenty years old, in short, you will graduate first, if you marry too early, these three thousand can become a dowry, and everyone will have to cry to death, and the landlord's family has no surplus food.
Li Letou's eldest daughter graduated in the first half of the year, and one hundred six coins had already arrived, and she couldn't graduate twice, so she became a money-loser, so he was anxious to marry his daughter again.
But this time Blacksmith Zhang was not in a hurry to speak, because there were too many people who wanted to propose marriage, including the county magistrate, who also hinted in private that he had the intention of marrying his family, and his son Zhang Dazhui is no longer a simple silly boy, but a hot and promising young man.
"This matter, let him decide for himself, after going to Xianmen for two years, there will definitely be changes. ”
Blacksmith Zhang was thinking in his heart, when suddenly a familiar voice came from behind him.
"Dad, I'm back. ”
Blacksmith Zhang hurriedly turned his head to look, and saw his eldest son coming over in the dust.
Compared with two years ago, there is no change in appearance, but the spirit is renewed, without that silly simplicity, but looks a little tough, just like those people from the big city, even if they are not readers, but they have seen far more markets than country people.
"The letter you sent back last time said that you have something important to tell your father, what is it?"
Zhang Dazhui hesitated for a moment, and then as if he had made a decision, he clenched his fists and said firmly: "Dad, the world is so big, I want to go and see it." ”
