Chapter 5 Natural Disasters and Civil Disorders [Part 1]
Chapter 5: Natural disasters and chaos [Part 1] ()
At night, Zhang Mansion.
Zhang Yuan sat cross-legged on the bed, with an exquisite small wooden box in front of him, with a few small red and blue pills inside. The pills were very delicate, just like glass beads, round, smooth, and the same size.
The next moment, Zhang Yuan picked up a small blue pill, smelled it, licked it... Embarrassing.
"Ph, ph, it's so bitter!" Zhang Yuan stuck out his tongue and grinned, but then he felt happy and said with a smile: "Good medicine is bitter, good medicine is bitter, the more bitter the better the effect."
"In the game, Luxue Pills are supplemented with 120 points of blood, and Luxue Pills are supplemented with 80 points of internal energy. I don't know what changes will happen to these medicines when used in reality..."
"I think the effect will not be too bad. Even if it is only one-tenth of the medicine, the effect will be very strong."
"Why would you try swallowing one?"
"Forget it, it's three parts poisonous. If you take it, it's trouble."
"It seems like I have to find an injured patient to try the medicine..."
"Let's talk about it later. There are opportunities in the future. There will always be people with headaches, fever, scratches, and then try using Deer Blood Pills!"
"As for this Lu Jing Pill... I have to find someone who has internal skills to try the medicine. This is difficult. Otherwise, I would try it out for my second brother and he would take everything. If he gave him Lu Jing Pills, he might eat this thing as a delicious food..."
Zhang Yuan murmured for a moment, and suddenly heard the sound of an updating sound outside. Only then did he notice that the night was already deep and it was time to fall asleep. He thought that he would have to get up early tomorrow morning to pack his luggage and rush to go. So he closed the lid of the small wooden box, put the small wooden box at the head of the bed, blew out the candle, and fell asleep on the bed.
The next day, it was dawn and Zhang Yuan was awakened by Zhang Sihu. After he got up, the servants at home entered his room, packed the clothes in his room, packed all the things he could take away, and then moved them to the carriage outside the door...
"Young Master, go to the kitchen to eat something. You will be on the road in a while." Zhang Sihu reminded.
"Yeah, okay." Zhang Yuan agreed, then walked out of the bedroom with a small bag. The small bag contained his close-fitting clothes and silver, as well as the medicine he had received in the dungeon world yesterday.
Zhang Yuan hummed a little tune and came to the kitchen. As soon as he entered the kitchen, he saw his fat second brother Zhang Chong. At this time, Zhang Chong was carrying a bowl of noodles, "Hula, Hula" large pieces.
"Second brother, it's early." Zhang Yuan greeted.
"Yeah, yeah, it's early." Zhang Chong responded in a speechless manner.
"Fourth Young Master, what are you eating? There are pancakes, millet porridge and side dishes, and there are also noodles. The noodle soup is a large bone soup made of deer bones." said the kitchen master Fu Bo.
Zhang Yuan saw that his second brother Zhang Chong's delicious noodles made him feel so good, which aroused his appetite for noodles, so he said, "Eat noodles."
"Okay." Uncle Fu replied, then picked up a bowl and made a bowl of cut surfaces, put a few large pieces of cooked meat on the cut surface, sprinkled some chopped green onions, and finally placed them in front of Zhang Yuan, saying, "Young Master, please use it."
"Thank you, Uncle Fu." Zhang Yuan thanked him, then picked up the chopsticks and ate it. The taste was really good. A large bowl of noodles was cut into his stomach in a moment. When he touched his stomach, he felt full. However, looking at his second brother Zhang Chong, he had already started eating the third bowl.
"Is this the second-dimensional world? The more masters you are, the more you can eat, and the more you eat, the higher your combat power..." Zhang Yuan murmured to himself.
Morning, Chen hour.
The Zhang Mansion was ready to go up and down, and twenty-four large carriages were parked in front of the Zhang Mansion. Except for ten specially carried people, the other carriages were filled with wooden boxes of all sizes. Next to each carriage were several servants or guards, each carrying weapons, and several of them were carrying bows or crossbows that were strictly prohibited from being used by the imperial court.
"Set off!"
As the shout of Zhang Jing, the Zhang family's convoy moved slowly, and twenty-four carriages lined up in a long line, heading towards the west in an orderly manner.
Zhang Yuan and Zhang Chong rode together in the same carriage, located in the second half of the convoy, mainly to catch the young master and manage the order of the second half of the convoy. In addition, Zhang Chong is a second-rate master and has some deterrence. If a martial arts master attacks, Zhang Chong can withstand for a moment and delay the guards and entourages in front of the team to help.
At this time, Zhang Yuan was lying listlessly on the bedding in the carriage shed. The carriage was shaking and bumping, making him dizzy. If Zhang Yuan hadn't been sure that he had no obvious symptoms of motion sickness, he would have suspected that his body had motion sickness.
"Second brother, are the official roads like this? They are bumpy and not as good as dirt roads in the countryside." Zhang Yuan said.
"That's good. The official road is paved with sand and stones. It doesn't get stuck in cars when it rains. If it's a dirt road in the countryside, it won't be able to walk when it rains." Zhang Chong said.
Zhang Yuan did not paint, but lifted the curtains of the car to see the scenery outside, but he could only see fields or weeds, and occasionally several farmers. Obviously, the Zhang family convoy had not yet walked out of the scope of Tuofeng Town.
"When will we arrive in Lizhou?" Zhang Yuan said again.
"It's early, you're just now on the road, and you're impatient? To reach Lizhou, it will take seven or eight days." Zhang Chong said.
"Seven or eight days? What about from Lizhou to Tizhou?" Zhang Yuan asked again.
"That's going to be far away. We're taking the official road. If we take the official road, it will probably take more than ten days. Hey, don't calculate the distance and the number of days. The more you calculate, the harder it will be. You should read the book to the endorsement with peace of mind. I guess after I arrive in Tizhou, my father will check your homework. If you don't have the time, be careful of getting beaten." Zhang Chong smiled.
"Oh." Zhang Yuan sighed, leaned against the bedding, picked up a book of Songs, and then recited it listlessly.
Zhang Yuan was really not interested in the traditional Chinese classics, so after he was reborn as "Zhang Yuan", he rarely touched books, but was more interested in family martial arts. However, the Zhang family was a noble family. As a child of a noble family, of course, they could not be just a martial artist, but must be both civil and military. If he was the eldest son and eldest son, he not only had to learn poetry, but also military tactics and strategies.
"A gentleman does not seek full food, does not seek peace in life, is quick to do things and is cautious in words..." Zhang Yuan was recited a few words, and he really couldn't stand the spirit of reciting these scriptures, so he threw the books, and then looked at his second brother Zhang Chong, and saw that his second brother Zhang Chong was meditating with his eyes closed, as if he was practicing martial arts. What's even more amazing is that no matter how bumpy the carriage was, Zhang Chong was sitting cross-legged, without any sign of shaking and falling down.
"Second brother?" Zhang Yuan called out, and then continued, "Are you practicing martial arts?"
"Nonsense, otherwise what do you think I'm doing?" Zhang Chong said with his eyes closed.
"Can you still talk while practicing qigong? Are you scaring me?" Zhang Yuan said with a dark face.
"Who said that practicing qigong cannot speak?" Zhang Chong asked back.
"Can you speak while practicing?" Zhang Yuan asked back.
"Can't you say it?" Zhang Chong asked again.
"..." Zhang Yuan was speechless.
"Haha, I usually can't speak when practicing, but I was just gathering my energy just now, so there is no taboo." Zhang Chong said with a smile.
Zhang Yuan looked at his second brother's fat smiling face and suddenly a thought flashed across him and said, "Second brother, I'm still idle anyway, why don't you teach me to comply with the Heart Sutra."
"Teaching you to participate in the Heart Sutra? Do you have true energy?" Zhang Chong rolled his eyes and said.
"No, but you can teach me the internal strength route first, and then tell me about my experience in practicing and integrating the Heart Sutra." Zhang Yuan said licking his face.
"Don't think about it. If you don't have true qi, you can't learn anything. Even if you give you an internal energy circuit diagram, you can't understand it. If you don't truly experience the true qi in your body, you can't understand how the true qi flows in your body. No matter how carefully I tell you, you won't understand it. Instead, you will be covered in dust." Zhang Chong said.
"Is there anything else?" Zhang Yuan said in shock.
"Of course, it's not good to lie to you." Zhang Chong said.
"Oh." Zhang Yuan sighed again, fell on the bedding, and closed his eyes and pretended to sleep in depression. Zhang smiled heavily, and then closed his eyes again to meditate and gathered his energy.
Half a month passed in a blink of an eye, and the Zhang family's convoy stopped and stopped. First, they arrived in Lizhou, but did not stop in Lizhou, but drove towards Tizhou without stopping...
Zhang Yuan has lived a very boring life these days. Apart from getting off the car and exercising his body, doing boxing, and running, he spent other time reciting poems and essays on the carriage. I have to say that learning is just about being storable. Zhang Yuan never thought that he could be full of knowledge. This is simply a miracle.
"A person must be cruel to himself and be cruel! Read an article hundreds of times. Not only will the meaning of the article be understood, but you can also memorize it like a stream." Zhang Yuan sighed.
When Zhang Yuan began to recite the fifth chapter of the ritual, the Zhang Mansion's convoy was gradually approaching the Lizhou border, and the closer it was to the Lizhou border, the more and more refugees they encountered on the road!
"Second brother, there are so many rushes from Tizhou to Lizhou south. It seems that Tizhou is suffering a lot of disasters. Is it inappropriate for our Zhang family to enter Tizhou so recklessly?" Zhang Yuan said, looking out of the car window.
"I also think something is wrong, but my father's letter is clearly written, so that we can arrive in Tizhou as soon as possible without delay. Perhaps, there is something hidden." Zhang Chong said.
While Zhang Yuan and Zhang Chong were chatting, the convoy suddenly stopped, and there was a sudden noise in front of the convoy, and vaguely heard angrily shouts and cries.
"Not good!" Zhang Chong exclaimed in a low voice, and instantly rushed off the carriage, and at the same time instructed Zhang Yuan: "Xiao Si, stay in the carriage, don't get out!"
After Zhang Chong finished speaking, he immediately ran to the front of the convoy, but Zhang Yuan sat in the carriage and was anxious. He wanted to get off the car and go to the front of the convoy to see the situation, but he also knew that getting off the car would only cause trouble for his family, so he could only wait anxiously.
Soon, the noise in front of the convoy stopped. About five minutes later, the convoy started moving again, and Zhang Chong also returned to the carriage...
When Zhang Yuan saw Zhang Chong coming back, he immediately asked, "Second brother, what's wrong with the front?"
"I met a robber, but they were all very weak, not even a third-rate warrior. Before I could arrive, I was shot and killed by the guards with crossbows, and the remaining few were scared away." Zhang Dao said.
"So weak? Then they dare to block the road and rob? Isn't this asking for death!" Zhang Yuan asked in surprise.
Chapter completed!
