Rebirth and daily cultivation

Xue Yuantong climbed the slope with difficulty. As she climbed higher and higher, her fear became more and more intense, and her calves trembled as she stepped on the slope.

She grabbed the root of the tree above her head, stood on tiptoes, and stretched out her hand very hard. Unfortunately, her hands were a little short and she couldn't reach it. She tried several times but still couldn't.

She wanted to change positions, but when she looked down, she suddenly realized that it was so far away from the ground.

Xue Yuantong pondered, how should she get down?

On the other side, Jiang Junlong was also climbing. After all, he was a boy and his physique was slightly better, but climbing up a ten-meter-high slope was really scary.

Imagine climbing against the wall on the third floor, and you will know what an exciting experience it is.

Xue Yuantong hung there for three minutes, motionless.

Jiang Ning shouted: "Can you still crawl? If not, just come down."

Xue Yuantong felt sad in his heart: 'You think I don't want to go down? As if I can go down...'

Jiang Ning saw through her vulnerability. He walked to the slope and opened his arms:

"Jump down and I'll pick you up."

Xue Yuantong didn't want to die. She felt that she was just a melon, but three meters was too high and she didn't dare to jump.

"Does this scare you?" Jiang Ning said cheerfully.

"Who said that!"

Xue Yuantong closed his eyes in anger, let go of the tree root in his hand, twisted around, and his petite body fell from the air.

Falling from a height of more than three meters is definitely a serious fall. However, Xue Yuantong has never doubted it due to countless experiences in the past.

Jiang Ning will definitely be able to catch her!

Shen Qing'e did not climb the slope. She was waiting below and happened to see this scene.

Jiang Ning mobilized his spiritual power to create an upward force. Xue Yuantong firmly fell into his arms and hooked his arms around his neck without any harm.

Jiang Ning bent down slightly and put her on the ground.

He touched his neck again, and the mud mark of Xue Yuantong's hand was left on his skin:

"Dirty shit."

Xue Yuantong was silent after hearing this. He just held him in his arms and really didn't have the courage to refute.

Shen Qing'e's original worry slowly faded away. If Xue Yuantong really fell, it would definitely be something that no one would want to see.

At this time, looking at the expressions of the two of them, Shen Qing'e frowned slightly: 'They are a bit too close. ’

‘It’s not like a simple neighbor relationship. ’

Then, she looked at the short Xue Yuantong, especially his childish face, which really didn't make her think too much about that.

According to her understanding of Jiang Ning, if that was possible, it would at least be Geng Lu or Bai Yuxia, not Xue Yuantong.

Before Shen Qing'e could think about it, she suddenly heard a burst of noise.

She turned around and saw a motorcycle rushing out of the wheat field.

In shock, Shen Qing'e leaned towards Jiang Ning.

Duan Shigang rushed out of the wheat field and made a beautiful sweep. His motorcycle stopped at the edge of the field and he looked at the people present.

His eyes first glanced at Jiang Ning, then Xue Yuantong, and finally settled on Shen Qing'e's face.

‘Student girl! ’ Duan Shigang smelled the smell of bones like a pug.

A faint look of disgust appeared on Shen Qing'e's face.

Deng Xiang in the north was getting closer and closer, and then he recognized Jiang Ning.

After seeing his face, Deng Xiang almost turned the car around and left.

In order to save face for his god-sister Gong Xuan, he led people to break into Class 8. On that day, he was arrogant. On that day, he overpowered the class alone. On that day, they fought eight against one.

As a result, he was severely beaten by Jiang Ning and was immediately kicked out of Deng Xiang. From then on, he was in a state of semi-retirement.

Ge Hao behind him also recognized Jiang Ning.

In the previous sports meeting, during the high jump event, Jiang Ning claimed to jump with her eyes closed. Ge Hao was unhappy, so he knelt down as a bet, but Jiang Ning actually jumped with her eyes closed.

Of course Ge Hao did not kneel down.

This caused him to look at Jiang Ning displeased. He looked at Jiang Ning and then at the boys on the slope, thinking that there were three of them here. If there was a conflict, wouldn't they win 3 versus 2?

Deng Xiang and Ge Hao were buddies who played together, but the fact that he was embarrassed in Class 8 had been suppressed and not spread widely, so Ge ​​Hao didn't know about it.

When Gong Xuan saw Jiang Ning, her eyes were extremely complicated. She was both afraid and yearning.

As for Qiu Die behind him, he looked at Xue Yuantong.

After a few people got out of the car, Xue Yuantong recognized Qiu Die.

Qiu Die was in the same class as her in junior high school. She was a female gangster in the class and was quite powerful.

Due to Qiu Die's pressure, Xue Yuantong copied her homework and helped her cheat in exams. All of this was forced.

Qiu Die, a bunch of little sisters, once dared to break into the girls' dormitory and teach others a lesson. If Xue Yuantong dared to resist, the consequences can be imagined.

But because of Qiu Die's signature, Xue Yuantong was never bullied in junior high school.

She met Qiu Die once at the barbecue stall last time, and she still liked to cause trouble as before.

Xue Yuantong didn't say hello. She didn't like Qiu Die. Now she could finally say no to things she didn't want to do.

When Jiang Junlong saw someone coming, he did not continue climbing, but withdrew from the slope.

He looked at the new arrivals and looked at their faces. He didn't feel like they were good people. Jiang Junlong asked:

"Brother Ning, do you know each other?"

"I don't know him." Jiang Ning said, "Let's go and have a look at the reservoir."

He passed several people and pushed the mountain bike. Xue Yuantong picked up the net and trotted behind him.

In front of the small slope is a reservoir, about thirty meters long and wide, and bordered by a small river to the west.

That small river is a tributary of Huishui River.

Slopes have been built on the north and south sides of the reservoir. The slopes are paved with mottled and uneven stone slabs. If someone stands on the stone slabs, they will not fall because they are too slippery.

Jiang Junlong looked at the deep and bottomless reservoir and asked, "How deep is this water?"

Jiang Ning said: "It's probably quite deep, but I don't know the details."

After hearing this, Xue Yuantong volunteered: "I'll take the test."

After saying that, she searched around and found abandoned bamboo poles that had been used to build a greenhouse.

She found several and tied them with ropes to form a huge pole.

Xue Yuantong picked up the bamboo pole and dragged it to the east guardrail of the reservoir. Although there was a guardrail blocking her, she was still very careful.

Her whole body's center of gravity was completely shrunk behind her, and she carefully and slowly submerged the bamboo pole into the water, looking extremely timid.

Jiang Ning was happy: "The bamboo pole is crooked."

Xue Yuantong pretended not to hear and did not dare to approach the reservoir.

Jiang Ning couldn't stand it anymore. He took the bamboo pole and reached down vertically.

Until the bamboo pole could no longer go down, it still failed to hit the bottom.

Jiang Junlong was shocked: "The bamboo pole is more than ten meters long, right?"

More than ten meters, that is to say, throw in the dirt slope he climbed just now, without any outcrop.

The most frightening thing is that the bottom of the reservoir has not been measured.

A voice sounded in the distance: "The reservoir is 18 meters deep. In the past, someone would drown every few years."

Duan Shigang is from a village in the south and knows a lot about this place.

He chuckled: "This reservoir is so old that no one has dared to swim in it for many years."

After hearing his story, Shen Qing'e's expression changed. There seemed to be some great terror hidden in the bottomless water.

Jiang Ning released his consciousness and swept towards the water. Everything in the reservoir was suddenly invisible.

It is indeed 18 meters, and there is a lot of silt at the bottom of the water. Its thickness is more than two meters, enough to sink a full adult.

After visiting the reservoir, Jiang Ning said: "Let's go, it's time to go to our destination."

They rode forward until they reached a small bridge.

The ditch under the bridge is about four meters wide. Such ditches are mostly used for farmland irrigation.

The water is clear and not polluted.

After crossing the small bridge, Jiang Ning did not go further south. He walked along the path beside the canal.

To the south were wheat fields, to the north were flowing canals, and to the north were lush green woods. They were walking along country roads.

After a hundred meters, the ditch suddenly opened up, and the water flow turned bottomless.

Xue Yuantong said: "This is a trench dug by an excavator."

Jiang Ning: "We're almost there."

Shen Qing'e heard the sound of water rushing in front of her and couldn't help but speed up her pace.

She finally reached the place where the terrain suddenly sank, creating a height difference of two to three meters. The water fell from the height and turned into pieces of white water splashing on the smooth bluestone surface.

All Xue Yuantong could see was the waterfall, and she could smell the water.

Below the waterfall is a gurgling stream. Jiang Ning said, "If you want to play, go down and play."

Shen Qing'e looked sideways: "How did you find this place?"

He has only been in the city for less than a year, so why is he so familiar?

Jiang Ning said: "Listen to what others say."

In fact, he had an extremely clear view of the area dozens of miles around.

Take a flying boat and scan with your spiritual consciousness to bring the nearby areas into your mind.

Xue Yuantong ran to the creek to play, and she discovered something good.

Xue Yuantong caught several crabs and was very happy. Unfortunately, the crabs were too small and not tasty, so she released them again.

Jiang Junlong looked at the creek, a little confused: "Can I catch fish here?"

"Follow me." Jiang Ning said.

After walking another hundred meters, there was a dry riverbed in the north-south direction. It was said to be dry, but it was not specific because there were two very small streams in the riverbed.

The canal running from east to west intersects with the small river running from south to north, describing a terrain similar to a three-way intersection.

To the south of the river bed, a large rectangular stone stands horizontally, dividing the river into two. A small amount of water flows out from the gap on the side of the stone.

Jiang Ning walked into the river bed and looked at the large lying stone that reached his waist. With a little step under his feet, he easily jumped onto the large stone.

Shen Qing'e was amazed by her elegant movements.

Jiang Ning stood on the boulder and looked at the river blocked by the boulder. Twenty meters in front of him, there was another boulder blocking the river. The river flowed out above the boulder, eventually forming a shallower water area between the two boulders. .

He took out the bamboo pole in his hand and inserted it into the river water, about 50 centimeters deep.

"Just touch it here," he said.

Jiang Junlong on the shore was stunned: "I thought it was a small ditch, but it turned out that I was really going down the river to fish!"

Xue Yuantong came from the small waterfall and was surprised when she heard that she went to the river to fish. After all, the river water gave people a relatively deep impression.

Jiang Ning took off his shoes and stepped into this section of the river. The water was barely deep enough to reach his knees. The bottom of the river was very clean, with shallow silt and comfortable for the soles of his feet. He scanned this section of the river several times with his consciousness to confirm that there were no dangerous creatures in this section of the river.

Jiang Ning looked at the fish swimming in the water, reached out and caught a palm-sized crucian carp.

He raised his hand, and Shen Qing'e saw that the dazzling sunlight fell on the fish scales, shining with silvery white light, and the fish swung its tail and struggled hard.

"Get the bucket." Jiang Ning reminded.

Shen Qing'e belatedly picked up the white bucket.

Xue Yuantong was faster. She quickly ran to the river, took off her shoes and rolled up her trouser legs.

She imitated Jiang Ning and rolled up her pants to her knees.

Jiang Ning brushed her off and said, "Curl it higher."

Xue Yuantong retorted: "Don't you just roll it up to your knees?"

Jiang Ning glanced at her petite body and said seriously: "People must be self-aware."

Xue Yuantong rolled up a little bitterly. She stepped into the water, and the water easily covered her knees and reached her thighs.

She stepped on the river and moved towards Jiang Ning, wanting to meet him.
