Text Chapter 1 Toad Squatting

Next Chapter

Toad squat is the name of a village, this village is not big, there are dozens of households less than 100 households, it is located on three mounds side by side, and there is a small lake 100 meters away from the entrance of the village. From the other side of the lake, the village looks like a crouching toad, hence the name of the village.

Under a big camphor tree at the entrance of the village, five or six boys gathered around one of them, about eight years old, to see him carving words on the bark, and one of the younger boys asked, "Brother Zhuzi, what are you carving?"

The eight-year-old boy finished carving unhurriedly, turned around with a smile on his face and was about to answer, when a teenage fat boy next to him shook his head and read: "A generation of keyboard hero Li Dazhu is here to visit!"

"Keyboard Hero!! "Several boys looked at the eight-year-old boy with a blank face.

"Pillar, we all know heroes, but what does 'keyboard' mean?" asked the fat boy with a puzzled face.

"Is it a plate made of iron?" and a pillar that you want to take an iron plate to do chivalrous deeds when you grow up?" asked a boy of course.

"Hahaha......" a group of boys laughed

"I've only seen someone begging with a broken plate, and I've never seen anyone who is chivalrous with a plate, haha," the fat boy laughed.

The eight-year-old boy Dongfang Zhu's face stiffened with a smile, his face turned red with anger, and he yelled: "You just take an iron plate, and your whole family takes an iron plate!

Only the boys were left looking at each other and making a joke, and I don't know why he suddenly became angry......

"Hmph! and lost his temper, if it weren't for my family's help, this kid would have starved to death!" the fat boy snorted coldly.

"That's it, it's still Lord Li's mercy!" The boys around immediately chimed in.

As you all know, the pillar is a traveler from Earth. This kid was caught in the storm of time and space when he was playing in the wild, and his flesh and body were destroyed into slag, leaving only his soul to wander for a long time, falling on an abandoned baby who was about to die on this continent, and was picked up by a lonely old man, Lao Litou, and raised by each other for his life. As for the name of Li Dazhu, the passer-by A and B, the meaning is good, and the others can't be too demanding, it's better than the dog leftover, the second dog, the big cow and the like, and the pillar can barely accept it.

In front of a dilapidated thatched house, the pillar sat on a cobblestone in front of the door with red eyes, silent. Thinking of his parents and family on Earth, he didn't know how to worry about looking for him, but he didn't hear from him, and here his grandfather was sick from hard work in order to support himself, but he had no choice but to watch him step by step towards the abyss of death......

couldn't help but cry like rain, and couldn't help but swing his fist and slam it into the door frame, only to hear a "creak", the old and dark door frame cracked a gap, and the right fist of the pillar was bloody.

"Earth, can I still go back?" Grandpa, I will definitely listen to you, live well, and burn enough paper money for you during the New Year's holidays, don't be so bitter down there......" Zhu Zi said silently.

Turning around and walking into the thatched hut, looking at the only nest that belongs to me and has seen countless times, the dim house of ten square meters has four walls, except for a dilapidated straw bed, there is only a black iron pot with broken edges and two black porcelain bowls are considered furniture. The smooth ground was uneven, and there were many small pits scattered from the east and west, which were dripped by the rainwater that leaked when it rained.

The straw bed is laid on top of a wooden bed frame, with a thick layer of wood at the bottom and a thick layer of straw on top. The pillar lay on the bed, covered with thick straw, and quietly thought about how to go next.

When he was on Earth, he was a science and engineering man who had just left school, and his skills were almost useless in this otherworldly countryside. Moreover, he is too young now, just turning eight years old, and he has been malnourished in a state of semi-starvation for a long time, resulting in a small and almost skinny body, unable to do physical work, so he can only give the rich man Li's family cattle and sheep in exchange for some coarse grain. "No, we have to find something else. The pillar thought to himself.

A few days later, in the meadow by the lake, a group of children were playing a game of hide and seek. Naturally, the age of the two pillars would not be involved, so he sat on the side and stared at the lake and thought about things. On the surface of the lake, all kinds of fish often jump out of the water and fall down, making a circle of ripples, and also hitting the heart of the pillar, rippling with the water waves. But he can only ripple, he doesn't dare to catch fish in the water, otherwise the lame Li in the village will be his role model...... The whole village is so big, and unlike every house on the earth, there are televisions, computers, and other electrical appliances. Rich Li's family is not a good family, there are more than a dozen of them in the nursing home alone, and everyone has blood on their hands, and the head of the guard, Zhang Hu, is known as the "Bloody Black Tiger", who came out of the Tiger Mighty Martial Arts Hall in the city, and it is said that he has learned real kung fu from his master!

Forget it, don't think about the fish, the pillar swallowed, patted his ass and stood up, took out a tile from his pocket, and looked around for wild vegetables to dig up. In the past few years, the wind and rain have been smooth, the crops have been harvested, and after paying all kinds of harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes, the villagers can barely fill their bellies, and there are not many people to dig the wild vegetables in these four fields. There are a lot of purslane, camellia and water celery by the lake, but the pillar is cheaper, and after a while, a small bundle is dug up, and today's food has been settled. Occasionally dig out a few licorice roots, put them in your mouth and chew them, which is sweet and refreshing, and makes people's depressed mood a little lighter.

In the evening, the cattle and sheep herders drove back to the village. At this moment, there was a noisy sound of gongs, and there seemed to be the sound of people shouting and shouting. In addition to red and white ceremonies, there are generally no gongs and drums in the village, is there something going on? The boys are scratched by cats and dogs, and they want to go back to join in the fun, after all, there is nothing new in the village all year round, and although the pillar is in his 20s, he is also curious.

A group of teenagers hurried and hurried, and after a while, they arrived at the entrance of the village, only to see dozens of nearly 100 people gathered together, and occasionally there were "going out of the door", "wandering", and "eating and drinking spicy...... Such a rough male voice. Occasionally, the onlookers high-fived and shouted, "Good!", "Awesome!", "It's a god!"

When the teenagers saw this, they scratched their ears and cheeks in a hurry, and quickly tied the cattle and sheep to the trunks of the trees by the roadside, and slipped into the crowd.

The pillar was not in a hurry, and he methodically fastened the reins in his hand and looked at the two tall horses not far away. The two horses were covered in fiery red and shiny hair, muscular, and more than two and a half meters high, standing in the shade of the trees like two giant beasts, and ordinary people probably could not climb on the horses......

Zhu Zi had seen horses on the earth, and the rich man Li also had several horses, but they were almost completely two species compared to these two horses...... The pillar shook his head, turned and walked into the crowd, relying on his short stature, he got into the front row in three or two clicks.

A strong man with a height of more than 1.8 meters stood under the big camphor tree, with a lot of gravel and sawdust scattered under his feet, his head raised high, his face full of disdain, looking down on the mud legs in the countryside, and the people around him looked like they were so flattering to adults.

The strong man hugged his fists and made a square salute, and said in a loud voice: "You are all Senior Brother Li's fathers and fellow villagers, Senior Brother Li passed the sect test last year, has excellent qualifications, and has become an inner disciple of my Spirit Sword Sect, and you can bring several guard disciples into the sect to practice my sect's immortal method together!" The strong man paused and then raised his hands and said, "Now everyone's opportunity has come, all 8-15-year-old boys can go to the sect with me to test their qualifications, as long as they pass the test and have the qualifications to cultivate, join Senior Brother Li's command, and when the time comes, they will eat and drink spicy food, gold, silver, wealth, and silk. It's a thousand times stronger than you digging soil in this poor country!" Saying this, he pointed behind him and said, "If you want to sign up, go to the Yellow Ledger to register and draw a charge, and you won't wait for it!" After speaking, he turned around and walked to a Taishi chair under the shade of the tree, sat down and closed his eyes to recuperate.

Everyone was a little moved by what he said, but no one stepped forward yet. Although everyone is having a hard time, but they can barely survive, now is not a peaceful and prosperous world, their own kid has no skills and no skills, if he passes the test, it's okay to say, if he doesn't pass, who knows what will happen when he goes out.

A handsome young man of fifteen or sixteen years old stood at the back of the crowd and saw this situation, his face turned red and he couldn't help but feel a little anxious, and he was secretly annoyed in his heart: This group of mud-legged people has a great opportunity in front of them, but no one has stepped forward to sign up? Thinking of a few good junior brothers, which one of them is not hugging each other, and some of them are saddle up and behind, but they are alone, and they will not be looked down upon when they go back this time? I just want to find a few followers with clean feet, who would have thought that they would actually have to be embarrassed! You know, only when there are many people can there be talented disciples! The Spirit Sword Sect is not a crooked melon and a cracked date! If you have no talent, you just kneel and die in front of the mountain gate without anyone looking at it. Last year, when he went, there were a lot of people, not to mention tens of thousands, but less than 100 people remained! This time, he also asked his father to see if he could recruit a few talented subordinates, and this time he would spend half of his family property, not to mention that he would spend half of his family property!

Seeing this, a short and fat white-faced middle-aged man next to him shook his head at another person, who respectfully stepped back, raised his hands and shouted loudly: "I sign up, and my two sons Li Lei and Li Huo sign up! Such a good thing is rare in a hundred years, how can you not participate! Besides, the faces of Li Daguan and Li Gongzi are also golden signboards within a radius of a hundred miles! Who doesn't give a thumbs up!"

Everyone thought about it, yes, the rich man Li has a high rent, but in a famine year, he will also reduce the rent and release grain to help everyone...... , maybe following Li Gongzi out to wander is also a way out. If you can learn a trick and a half and go out to make a nursing home, it will be more than ten times better than digging food in the soil! Look at the Li family's nursing homes, they are idle all day long, eating fragrant and spicy food, and they get several times more money every month than their own! Thinking of this, the villagers could not sit still and shouted one after another: "My family...... Newspaper one!"

The pillar's eyes flashed, and finally he gritted his teeth and stepped forward and said, "I'll report one too!"
