I became an old man in my leisure time

The result of the discussion of the Xiong family is... Xiong Da and Xiong Er should go out less these days and talk less with other friends. Read М

Anyway, it's cold, and saving some food at home can last for more than a month.

After ten days or half a month, when the injury of Bear Daddy gets better, it's okay for them to go out and laugh happily.

As for teaching the villagers martial arts, Bear Daddy gave a very steady suggestion. If his injury gets better before the spring, he will go into the mountains.

If his injury is not healed, only Bear Da and Bear Er can go into the mountains.

After returning, the two brothers can practice the Black Evil Palm and Pushing Mountain Palm in front of those fellow villagers. Whoever wants to learn will be taught the basics first.

Anyway, the system initiation has special blessings, but the ones they "pass on" do not have them, so they are not afraid of teaching the apprentice and starving the master.

If anyone wants to get to the bottom of it, let them come to Bear Daddy.

At that time, he claimed that he had saved a middle-aged down-and-out warrior when he went into the mountains, and as a thank you, he taught them some basic martial arts.

After the family discussed it, they began to live in seclusion.

When going out to do things, it was mostly Xiong Wangshi, Xiong Er, Xiong Da... It was not without reason that Xiaoman called him a fool brother, so it was better to practice martial arts at home.

Since they could not go out to find bad friends, the two brothers used wood to make the fence in the backyard high and dense.

It was said to prevent wild animals from entering the house, but in fact it was to separate the space for the family to practice martial arts.

Of course, except for the seriously injured old man Xiong.

Pushing the mountain palm is more troublesome, and it will take some time to practice.

The black evil palm does not require a high training site, as long as you can stretch your hands and feet.

The demand for materials can be high or low, and at worst, fine sand and soil and tough wood can be used for training, but the progress is slower.

The system initiation has no mistakes and difficulties, which is extremely suitable for the Xiong family who are not literate.

After more than ten days of hard training at home, the two brothers felt that their hands had a very light black color, which was the beginning of the Black Evil Palm.

This is much better than the Bull Fist taught by Village Chief Niu. They didn't understand that boxing very well, so they didn't practice it well and made very slow progress.

It's not as simple as the Black Evil Palm. You know it when you make a mistake, and you just need to correct it.

Unfortunately, the two brothers are not the strongest in the Xiong family. The strongest is their mother, Xiong Wangshi. She got started in three days and could chop wood with her bare hands in ten days.

But she has worked hard for many years, and her hands are rough and black. If her palms are a little darker, it won't be visible at all.

On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, Xiong Wangshi specially invited Village Chief Niu to come home and see the injury of old man Xiong.

Village Chief Niu was amazed and even praised the old immortal's medicine for being extraordinary. Old man Xiong's injury has basically recovered.

However, for the sake of safety, you can get out of bed and walk around, but don't do strenuous activities within a month.

As soon as the news came out, the villagers came to visit.

Only a few families with very close relationships had come before. It was not that other people were indifferent, but that the head of the family had not recovered from his injury, and it was annoying for the disciples to come.

Now it was confirmed, it was a great joy.

It just happened that they could see with their own eyes whether the old immortal was alive or dead - for the villagers, his stomach was cut open and blood was flowing all over his crotch, which meant that he was dead.

If he could be saved, no one would believe that Shennong was not an immortal.

Old Bear got out of the bed, his joy was beyond words.

Xiong Wangshi's husband was sure that he was fine, and he also smiled.

Even Big Bear and Little Bear were inexplicably excited. They had been holding back for a whole half month, and they couldn't brag and hang out with the group of friends in the village, set traps, dig pits and catch wild animals. It was really uncomfortable.

Especially now that the two of them were "strength soaring", they were just about to compete with their friends.

It was still Xiong Wangshi who saw that the situation was not good, so she sent the two brothers out of the village to dig some wild vegetables to entertain the guests in advance, so as to prevent the silly eldest son from letting the cat out of the bag in excitement.

After being busy for most of the day, she accepted various scattered gifts from the visitors, such as a small ball of animal oil, a few cents of brown sugar, half a pound of brown wheat, a few dried fruits, and some blood-replenishing herbs. The amount was not much, but it was all a token of her heart.

In fact, the sugar water and hot porridge she boiled were almost all gone after she gave a bowl to the villagers who came to visit.

If her family was in trouble, the sugar water would be lighter, the porridge would be thinner, and the bowls would be smaller. The remaining things could be left to old man Xiong to take care of his body.

If the family was not in trouble, she would give everyone a better meal as a thank you.

This was a tacit human interaction. Everyone has hard days, so it’s okay as long as it’s not too much.

After that, the activities of the Xiong family had to become more frequent.

Xiong Wangshi simply asked the two brothers to take their father to wander around their own fields near the village and work by the way.

The land in the mountains and forests is always small pieces, and there are trees, grass and hillsides blocking it. Even if they are dozens of meters away, they can’t see what each other is doing.

The two brothers were like wild boars after hibernation, turning the soil in the field with the black evil palm.

Well, this is the experience that Gu Ke taught by the way during the initiation. Just like playing with stones and wood with bare hands, working is practicing, and proficiency will naturally increase over time.

Xiong Da and Xiong Er both have good physical talents, otherwise they would not be able to drag the seriously injured bear father and run around under the pursuit of the sunflower demon.

The black evil palm can be used for work and does not require brainpower. As long as people can bear it, they can keep practicing.

More importantly, the martial arts of initiation can vaguely feedback progress.

Although it is not a system prompt like Gu Ke, the meaning conveyed to the brain is "use XXX, proficiency improves."

The first few levels of the black evil palm, a martial art without grades, are particularly fast, and it can be upgraded by two or three levels in less than ten days.

At this time, the body can clearly feel the difference from before practicing martial arts, which is enough to prove that the feedback received by the brain is true.

In the past, the brothers complained about all kinds of rough and miscellaneous work when they did it, but now they enjoy doing it.

Father Bear on the side was looking for an opportunity to find fault. It was not easy for him to scold his stupid son for a few times, and he couldn't hide the envy in his eyes.

When he got home, he saw his mouth pick up the firewood, push the mountain with his palm, and the firewood as thick as his arm was broken with a squeaking sound, which made Father Bear even more itchy and unbearable.

It's a pity that he didn't dare.

I had nothing before. If I didn't work hard, my family wouldn't be able to survive, so I could only risk my life to take risks.

Now that the family has grain, exotic purple wheat, and heirloom farming and self-defense martial arts, he is reluctant to die.

If people cannot move around, they will inevitably have more thoughts.

After pondering for a few days, while lying on the bed at night, he couldn't help but pull Xiong Wang.

As a result, the mother-in-law grabbed her hand and warned her in a low voice: "You old bear, don't think too much, or you won't be afraid of the trouble in your stomach."

Father Xiong didn't mean this at first. Hearing these words, he couldn't help but reach forward with his hand. As a result, Mrs. Xiong's breathing became rapid, but he still said: "We'll talk about it in a few days, when you're well."

Father Xiong felt her hands pressing down on him like iron pillars. He raised his head and sighed inwardly. He had been lying down for the past half month. Even a child could hold him down with one hand.

His mind had to return to what he had been thinking about these past few days: "I want to tell you about the old god."

Mr. Xiong Wang loosened his hand and said, "Well, your injury is much better today. You should pay homage to the old man and thank him for saving your life, but there is no place to do so."

Father Xiong took the opportunity to wrap his arms around her thick waist: "That's what I'm talking about. Didn't many people say that day that they wanted to make room for the old god under the cliff at the entrance to the mountain?"

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Xiong Wang thought about it and couldn't help but slapped her arm: "My enemy, many people said at the time that there was no movement."

You silly bitch, why are you slapping me on the arm? Father Xiong felt a burning pain and quickly reached out to grab the big slap to avoid being slapped again later: "You didn't pay attention, Niu Dazhuang's melon..."

Having said this, Mrs. Xiong Wang tightened her hands: "Shh, don't scream. He won't hate you if he hears it."

Father Xiong had no choice but to change his words: "You don't know the village chief... If you don't mention this matter these days, maybe you just remember that the old god asked the little fairy to beat Niu Erbao."

Mrs. Xiong Wang was surprised: "No, he dares to hold a grudge?"

Father Xiong also felt that the exaggeration was too much, and quickly pulled back: "It's not a grudge, but it's a good thing that others don't mention the matter of setting up a sign for the old god at the mountain god cliff. The gods didn't want us to do this in the first place."

Xiong Wang thought about it and felt that Niu Dazhuang was so petty. It doesn't matter if you say it's bad, and it definitely doesn't count if you say it's good. You can really do such a thing.

No wonder he, the head of the family, has always been at odds with him.

"What should we do?" she asked.

Father Xiong hummed: "You go to my second uncle, he is the village elder. He said that my survival depends entirely on the old god's intervention. You want to offer incense to the old god to fulfill his wish."

Mrs. Xiong Wang was startled, and then suddenly realized: "Do you want to mention the matter of the old god giving wheat seeds again?"

Father Xiong shook his head: "No, you just said that our family should remember the old god's love. When I get well, I will definitely go and fulfill the old god's wish. Hehe, if they are not guilty, then just watch from the side."

Mrs. Xiong Wang understood what her man meant, and after thinking about it, she thought this was a good idea: "If you want, I'll go find my second uncle early tomorrow morning."

The next day, Xiong Wang went to the home of her second uncle, the village elder Xiong Dashi, and told her what she had said. Xiong Dashi listened with a slightly sarcastic expression on his face.

These days, everyone only cares about being happy, and no one really mentions the matter of setting up a card for the old god.

The reason is very simple, no one wants to go to Grandma Xiong to ask for help.

Qi Nuo is a way for the surrounding villages to invite gods to drive away plagues and diseases. Granny Xiong is the witch-Han goddess.

There are similar things in other places, with different names and many differences in details, but the essence is the same.

The initiation of Nuo must be related to the affairs of witches and gods, and ordinary people are not necessarily willing to contact them. As the saying goes, respect ghosts and gods and stay away from them. This is the truth.

Every month in Xiongjia Village, every family in Xiongjia Village collects some grain, vegetable oil and sends it to the mountain god Yabi as an offering to her.

Grandma Xiong would take things away by herself and rarely meet the villagers.

The village chief had to come forward to set up the plaque, otherwise the village elder had to speak up, so all the villagers subconsciously ignored it before.

Even if it is a life-saving grace, there are many people who turn around and turn their backs, so we can't expect too much from this.

If this matter is delayed for a while, it will be forgotten, and the old god did not mention the God-Establishing Card.

But Father Xiong and his family are in the spotlight, so this matter cannot be ignored.

When the time comes, the four members of his family will go to the mountain god's cliff to fulfill their vows. It would be strange if Grandma Xiong doesn't get angry.

Mr. Xiong Wang is a cheerful person. After saying this, he left without even drinking water.

Xiong Dashi saw her off, walked around the house for a while, and finally went out to find Chief Niu.

It is the village chief who should make the decision on this matter. As the village elder, he is not the leader, so there is no need to push forward and make others dislike him.

Niu Dazhuang was blocked at home by Xiong Dashi. The two whispered for a moment, and Niu Dazhuang nodded with a wry smile on his face.

He fled from other places with his son and nephew. He became the village chief because he married the daughter of Xiong Dahe, another village elder in Xiongjia Village.

However, he is outstanding in martial arts, so he is not a wife, but a relative of Xiongjiacun.

A few years after getting married, he became a novice martial artist, and with the support of Xiong Dahe, he became the village chief.

Now that Xiong Dahe passed away a few years ago, Niu Dazhuang's status as village chief has not been shaken, but he cannot act recklessly.

Take the whole family away? Don't joke. As a martial artist, he can only be a small leader in the front line of gang fighting in the county. If he is not careful, he will be gone before he gets comfortable in his position.

Xiongjia Village is a bit poor, but it is stable and free, and people will not be driven like dogs.

The next day, Niu Dazhuang summoned all the men in the village to the ancestral hall and told them about putting up a sign for the old immortal on the cliff of the mountain god.

The villagers exchanged a lot of glances and nodded in agreement, and no one spoke out to object.

Anyway, it was not their turn to take the lead in this matter, and who would sing a different tune from an old immortal who "might" be the incarnation of the mountain god?

What if the old immortal comes again one day to see how they are planting purple wheat, and someone says "that person didn't want to put up a sign for you at the beginning", then it's all over?

Is it that the old immortal can't chop people with his hatchet, or that the fairy lady can't break bones with her fists and feet?

Moreover, the existence of the transaction contract makes them very sure of the "power" of the old immortal.

Whenever he wanted to break the contract and not give the purple wheat to outsiders after three years, he would feel uncomfortable as if a huge rock was pressing on his chest.

This situation has been repeated many times, enough to make the villagers inexplicably awed - this is a spell, if he is not a god, then who is a god?

Niu Dazhuang is the same.

He can not take the initiative, but he dare not show any evasion when others bring it up.

Otherwise, after a season of purple wheat, the villagers will remember him for this matter.

Although the pressure of negotiating with Granny Xiong is also great, this is something that the whole village agrees with, not just Niu Dazhuang's idea.

If she is not satisfied, she can come to trouble these people in Xiongjia Village.

In this way, the matter is finalized.

Niu Dazhuang, a person of an outsider, can be the village chief, and he is decisive in doing things. So he went to the cliff of the mountain god to find Granny Xiong.

The villagers don't know how the two talked, but when Niu Dazhuang came back, he said that Granny Xiong agreed.

But Shennong is just the incarnation of the mountain god, so it is better not to put him in the mountain god cave, but to find another pit to erect a memorial tablet.

The villagers don't care, anyway there are many pits on the cliff, just different sizes and depths.

The mountain god cave for enshrining the mountain god statue is one zhang in diameter and four or five zhang deep, and Granny Xiong can make a house behind the mountain god statue to live in.

The pit used by the old god does not need her to live in it, and it is one or two meters deep to shelter from wind and rain.

The pit can be smaller, but the ceremony of erecting the statue and the memorial tablet cannot be sloppy.

Both are made by the village elders according to Granny Xiong.

The statue is more time-consuming and laborious, and the craftsmanship cannot be too bad, otherwise it will be too embarrassing for Shennong.

After discussion, the village elders decided to erect the memorial tablet first, and then slowly make the statue, and then erect it after this year's autumn harvest.

The villagers have no objection.

Of course, the autumn harvest will harvest the exotic purple wheat. As long as the purple wheat is full, who dares to fool the old god at that time? Eating purple wheat will make people afraid of heartburn.
