Reborn in 1977

Chapter 145: Don't Lead Him Astray

At this time, the snow was getting heavier and heavier, and the howling of the north wind was almost the same as last night.

Chen Fan, carrying the load, glanced at the piglets and lambs covered with straw, and then focused his attention on his feet.

It didn't snow much in the morning, and the previous snow had frozen into ice. When the snowflakes became larger at noon, the road surface became a structure of "thin snow on the upper layer and thick ice on the lower layer."

This kind of road surface is most likely to be slippery. Fortunately, Chen Fan's cheval-de-frise stance and horse stance have already reached the entry level. He walks very steadily, and can respond flexibly in case of accidents. Otherwise, even if he wears wooden clogs, he will inevitably fall after taking a few steps.

He stepped on the steps of the Five Elements Fist all the way, and finally rushed back to the brigade headquarters before two o'clock.

Walking into the room, just after putting down the bamboo basket, before he could take off his hat and raincoat, Xiao Liewen rushed out with a whoosh, looking at him with glowing eyes, "If I'm not mistaken, your horse stance has already reached the entry level?"

He had been watching Chen Fan since he entered the courtyard gate. Usually, he only felt that Chen Fan's basic skills were very good, but it was not until today's special weather that he realized that in just a few days, he seemed to have already reached the entry level?

Zhang Wenliang followed behind him, looking at Chen Fan as if he were looking at a monster.

Chen Fan blinked, took off his hat and raincoat, hung them on the wooden pegs on the wall, and said, "I don't know if I have reached the entry level, anyway, I use the Five Elements Fist footwork to rush to and from get off work every day, but I just came back from the commune, and I almost fell several times, but I was fine with the skills of the horse stance, it seems that there has been some progress compared to usual."

Xiao Liewen immediately pointed at him and said, "Show me the Five Elements Fist."

Chen Fan said "Oh", first moved the two bamboo baskets aside, and then meticulously did the warm-up exercises.

Although Xiao Liewen felt itchy in his heart, he still patiently waited for him to finish the warm-up exercises.

Then Chen Fan began to practice the Five Elements Fist.

After finishing a set of Five Elements Fist, Xiao Liewen let out a long breath, nodded lightly and said, "Your horse stance has officially reached the entry level, and the Five Elements Fist also has a bit of shape, you can officially practice boxing."

Zhang Wenliang next to him was full of complexity. How many days has Chen Fan been learning? He had practiced for a full half a year at that time!

Chen Fan's eyes lit up, "Really, what should I learn next?"

At this time, Secretary Yang, Team Leader Zhang and Ye Shubao also came out, in the main room of the front yard, watching Xiao Liewen teach Chen Fan the San Ti posture and the Five Elements Saber move by move.

Ye Shubao smoked a cigarette and muttered, "Little Chen is our Lu Jiawan's Wenquxing [God of Literature], the broadcasting station and the veterinarian are counting on him as the pillar, will Lao Xiao lead him astray?"

Team Leader Zhang also narrowed his eyes worriedly, silently thinking about the possibility of Chen Fan being led astray, and at the same time a picture appeared in his mind.

A cow went crazy, and no one could do anything about it. At this time, Chen Fan stood up, first grabbed the cow's tail, and held it tightly. The big buffalo was pulled back again and again. Chen Fan actually went up to meet the difficulty, supported the horns of the cow with both hands, and then pressed down hard, knocking the buffalo to the ground, then raised his head and said heroically, "Feed the cow medicine!"

Thinking of this, Zhang Changjiang couldn't help but shudder.

This veterinarian is a bit fierce.

At this time, Secretary Yang shook his head, and said with a firm face, "It shouldn't be, haven't you noticed that Little Chen learns everything very quickly, like learning veterinary medicine, and the same with learning martial arts, he will definitely not be led astray by Lao Xiao like you said."

It's just that he is more and more firm in his mind that he must not accept Chen Fan as a militiaman, otherwise he may really be led astray.

This Lao Xiao is also true, why teach Little Chen martial arts? If you have nothing to do, you can dig a few more turtles in the ditch to have a good New Year.

Xiao Liewen didn't know that the three old fellows were slandering him. First, he taught the San Ti posture once, and then he taught the Five Elements Saber once.

When Chen Fan practiced by himself, he carefully guided him, "The San Ti posture is the foundation-building skill of Xingyi Boxing, and it is also one of the best foundation-building skills of all internal martial arts. The cheval-de-frise stance and horse stance you learned before are just for laying the foundation, and practicing the Five Elements Fist is just to make your body more coordinated and experience the various force changes of Xingyi Boxing.

When the foundation is laid well and you enter the door, you can officially practice boxing. The first step in practicing boxing is to start with the San Ti posture…"

Chen Fan listened to him while practicing seriously. Under his diligent study and hard practice, martial arts finally rose to LV3 (30/100).

The experience value rushed so high as soon as it was upgraded, it's a accumulation of knowledge and experience!

After finishing the practice, Xiao Liewen nodded in satisfaction, but then put away the smile on his face, coughed dryly, "Not bad, you must practice diligently every day in the future, and you must not slack off for a day."

Chen Fan nodded excitedly, "Understood, practice makes perfect."

After a pause, he smiled again, "Captain Xiao is really wise and mighty, I was just thinking about cleaning up the miscellaneous trees on my homestead, and you taught me the Five Elements Saber, so now I can use the Five Elements Saber to chop firewood, it will definitely be twice the result with half the effort!"

Hearing this, Xiao Liewen's mouth twitched, and he resisted the urge to beat someone, and asked in a deep voice, "You use kung fu to chop firewood?"

Chen Fan smiled, "You can also say that you are practicing all the time."

When Xiao Liewen heard this, it seemed to make sense, but he felt that something was wrong?

When Zhang Changjiang heard this sentence, he felt that maybe it was not Little Chen who was led astray, but maybe Lao Xiao was led astray.

At this time, Secretary Yang saw the two bamboo baskets leaning against the wall. One bamboo basket contained two black and white piglets, and the other contained two pink lambs. Although they were covered with a lot of straw, they were already covered with snow.

He looked at Chen Fan again, reached out and took out the upper layer of straw, shook off the snow, "Did you buy this?"

When Chen Fan saw it, he quickly went over to clear the snow, and nodded at the same time, "I just bought it at the breeding station."

Xiao Liewen walked over, picked up a piglet and pinched it a few times, "Not bad, quite strong."

Zhang Changjiang and Ye Shubao, who were beside him, nodded with satisfaction.

Buying piglets and lambs is good. Buying these things means he considers this place home. As long as he has feelings for it, even if he finds clues to go back home in the future, he won't leave easily.

Watching Chen Fan go to the backyard, Ye Shubao suddenly asked, "Old Zhang, do you think the commune will transfer Little Chen over in the future?"

Zhang Changjiang squinted his eyes and shook his head gently, "Hard to say."

Xiao Liewen also frowned, "Wouldn't it be?"

Zhang Changjiang thought for a while, "Yesterday evening, Lao Yang and I went to Secretary Qian to talk about the veterinary study quota. He seemed particularly happy and said that Little Chen can write and is capable, a rare talent."

Ye Shubao slapped his thigh, his face darkening, "That's bad, he must have taken a fancy to him."

Just as the others were worried, Secretary Yang calmly waved his hand, "No."

Everyone immediately turned to look at him.

Secretary Yang took a puff of his cigarette, raised his head, and looked in the direction of the backyard, smiling, "If Secretary Qian really valued him, he wouldn't have agreed to give us an extra veterinary study quota and insisted that he must go, otherwise the study quota wouldn't count."

Hearing this, Zhang Changjiang and the others breathed a sigh of relief.

Since he strongly advocated for Chen Fan to study veterinary medicine, then he didn't have the idea of transferring him to the commune office, otherwise, why would he do these things?

Since the commune leaders didn't have this idea, then no one could snatch him away from Lujiawan.

But thinking that Secretary Qian actually looked down on Chen Fan, Ye Shubao was a little indignant and said sarcastically, "Our Secretary Qian has high standards. He can't even stand someone who can publish articles in the Prefectural Committee Daily. What kind of person can he stand?"

Secretary Yang turned to look at him and said meaningfully, "Do you think Secretary Qian looks down on Little Chen?"

Ye Shubao was stunned and stared blankly at him, "Didn't you say that?"

Secretary Yang slowly shook his head and said softly, "If he didn't value him, he wouldn't have agreed to our request. He would definitely insist on handling things according to principles, waiting for the commune veterinary station to open another class before sending someone over, instead of temporarily opening a class for them."

Another thing…"

He raised his pipe and took a puff, his gaze seeming to see the commune compound a few kilometers away through the smoke, "Lujiawan is under the commune, and the people of Lujiawan are the people of the commune. Putting Little Chen in Lujiawan, he is both our person and the commune's person. If the commune needs someone, can we stop them?"

Zhang Changjiang clapped his hands and nodded repeatedly, "That's the principle."

Xiao Liewen clicked his tongue and couldn't help but curse, "Old Qian is getting bad too. Oh, we raise him and have to allocate land and work points. When he needs to use him, he just recruits him. What kind of principle is this?"

Secretary Yang turned to look at him and chuckled, "Little Chen is still a member of Team 6. How did you manage to pull him to the brigade headquarters? Even if the brigade gives work points, the homestead is still provided by Team 6. Can it be worth your work points for a few years?"

Hearing this, Xiao Liewen stopped talking.

After a pause of two seconds, he suddenly chuckled, and then the entire front yard burst into laughter.

…

Hearing the laughter, Chen Fan glanced outside inexplicably, wondering what good thing they had encountered again.

Then he shook his head and continued to practice his stance while reading.

By the time he turned on the radio at 4 o'clock and turned it off at 5 o'clock, he had gone through the entire set of veterinary training materials.

In general, everything is under control.

You only need to remember the common symptoms and treatment plans for common diseases of poultry and livestock such as pigs, horses, cattle, sheep, chickens, ducks, and geese, and be able to accurately prescribe prescriptions, including traditional Chinese medicine prescriptions and Western medicine prescriptions, and you will have completed one-third of the task.

Then, familiarize yourself with the original form, preparation methods, medicinal properties, and pharmacology of various herbs, and you will have completed another one-third.

As for the remaining part, it is some animal meridians, acupoints, and acupuncture methods.

In general, Chen Fan can pass the test in three days.

Oh, right, the training class will start after the fifteenth day of the first lunar month.

So, should I directly apply for graduation?

While tidying up his things, Chen Fan picked up the peregrine falcon, who was sleeping soundly, from the box and thought about how likely this possibility was.

In the end, he felt it was still impossible.

Because he is not just one person, he also has to bring two teammates.

In other words, he is going to the training class not to be a student, but to be a teaching assistant!

In this way, there is naturally no possibility of graduating early.

Forget it, for the sake of a happy and beautiful life in the future, let's be a little tired for the time being.

When passing through the front yard, Chen Fan greeted the leaders and prepared to go home.

At this time, Zhang Wenliang came out with a paper package tied with a rope and handed it to him, "This is from my ninth younger brother. Thank you for making a few dishes and helping him save face. You didn't eat a bite yourself, so here's something for you to take back and cook yourself."

Chen Fan waved his hand and said, "What is this for? I just cooked a few dishes, it's no trouble,…"

Before he could finish speaking, Zhang Wenliang hung the rope directly on the wooden stick that served as a carrying pole, "It's just half a catty of meat and half a pig liver, which isn't worth much money. Just take it back to add to your meal."

Then he smiled and said, "The day after tomorrow is the 22nd of the twelfth lunar month, which is the last training session of our militia company this year. Are you coming?"

This time, Chen Fan couldn't bother with politeness and immediately nodded and smiled, "If it doesn't interfere with work, I will definitely come."

Zhang Wenliang made a gesture, "Okay, then I'll reserve a set of equipment for you."

Then he laughed loudly, "During the training, we all have picnics outside. If you are willing to come, everyone will definitely be very happy."

Chen Fan also smiled and said, "I'm afraid I can't escape this part-time chef job."
