Gao Yue refused to admit defeat, but his mother laughed and scolded him: "You are said to be short, why don't you admit defeat? What are you afraid of? Men can grow to be twenty-four years old!"
"I don't know if I can grow to twenty-four years old. Anyway, I just need to be taller than my dad!" Gao Yue said sternly. Gao Guobing's height is indeed not very high. The main reason is that the social environment at that time was worse and he was older. The people there lacked food and clothing, so naturally they did not grow tall.
"Tsk, how dare you say this in front of your father?" His mother said rudely.
Gao Yue made a face, and the mother and son got along very closely.
This intimacy made Gao Mingcheng envious.
They laughed for a while and eliminated the barrier between them that they had not seen each other for a long time.
"Mingcheng, you came just in time. Someone just sent a pig's foot this morning. Today we eat pig's feet stewed with soybeans, as well as braised tofu and stir-fried cowpeas. Do you think there is anything else you want to eat? Yes. If you want to eat, auntie will cook it for you!" Gao Yue asked with a smile. His hands kept moving, closing the Double Happiness pressure cooker and placing it on the coal stove.
Gao Mingcheng naturally said politely: "Very good, I like them all."
Then he asked where Gao Guobing was, because he didn't see Gao Guobing after he came in.
Gao Yue said quickly: "My father is on duty at the police station in front, but there is nothing important recently. He will be back after lunch. Come to my room. I bought a few books recently. Let's read! "
With that said, he took Gao Mingcheng to his room.
He and his brother Gao Hong shared a room, but now that Gao Hong had gone to the army, most of the room was filled with his things. Gao Hong's personal belongings were piled in the corner.
The book Gao Yue spoke of was not a serious book, but a miscellaneous book, or a martial arts novel!
Most of them are works by Liang Yusheng, Jin Yong and Gu Long, and there is also a martial arts legend comic book "Swallow Li San".
In addition to these books, there are also four major classics on the bookshelves, as well as books such as "The Romance of the Gods" and "Three Heroes and Five Righteousnesses". In terms of book collection, the Gao Yue family has more books than their entire village.
In their village, apart from the textbooks distributed at school, there are probably not many extracurricular books.
These extracurricular books cost a lot of money and are relatively difficult to buy. People in the village do not have the luxury of buying miscellaneous books to read.
At most, they could listen to the storytelling of "The Romance of the Sui and Tang Dynasties" on the radio on time at noon. Listening to the storytelling for half an hour would be enough for them to reminisce about it for the whole day.
"Look, some of them are my latest purchases! This comic book is good, much more interesting than reading words. But what's more interesting is watching TV! "Journey to the West" played during the Spring Festival this year is so good! By the way, Gao Mingcheng, have you read it?"
Gao Yue kept talking and looked up at Gao Mingcheng, as if he wanted to talk to Gao Mingcheng about the plot of "Journey to the West".
Gao Mingcheng nodded and said with certainty: "I saw it."
The 1986 version of "Journey to the West" started filming in 1982. The first 11 episodes premiered on CCTV during the Spring Festival in 1986, and then the first 25 episodes were broadcast in 1988. Finally, in 2000, "Journey to the West Sequel" premiered on CCTV.
"Journey to the West" was aired during the Spring Festival in 1986 and became a sensation across the country. It received extremely high ratings and created a mythical ratings of 89.4%. Afterwards, it became the most replayed TV series during the winter and summer vacations, with more than 3,000 rebroadcasts.
Therefore, although there was a long time apart, Gao Mingcheng's impression of the 1986 version of "Journey to the West" was particularly profound. This was even a childhood memory for several generations.
So the two talked about the 1986 version of "Journey to the West" and shared their opinions - which plot was their favorite.
While talking, Gao Yue took Gao Mingcheng to watch TV again.
Their family has a black-and-white TV. His father, Gao Guobing, watches "Xinwen Lianbo" on time every day. During other times, Gao Yue can watch TV series.
There were not many TV channels at this time, and the TV content was not as rich as in later generations. However, the emergence of TV sets has greatly enriched people's entertainment.
After turning on the TV, a piece of content about qigong was playing.
Qigong craze has emerged across the country this year, and you can see related content on TV and newspapers.
Gao Mingcheng watched the so-called qigong master on TV and fell into deep thought.
Qigong masters talked about the various theories of qigong and its benefits to the body on TV, and also performed some demonstrations, such as swallowing glass, bending spoons, etc.
Gao Yue looked at the qigong master on TV with a burning look in his eyes. He said excitedly: "My father and his friends are also practicing qigong. They practice 'intelligent skill'. I have seen the exercises they practice. It's really interesting! Brilliant!" Cheng, do you think my father will be able to swallow glass and bend spoons like this qigong master after he masters qigong?"
His face was full of interest and expectation, but Gao Mingcheng was speechless and asked: "Even if I can swallow glass and bend spoons, so what? Performing for people every day?"
Gao Yue was silent for a moment, not knowing what to say.
His father was asked to perform glass swallowing and spoon bending performances every day... Why did he suddenly feel a cool breeze blowing?
Gao Mingcheng said at this time: "Do you know how to practice the 'intelligent skill' that your father and others practice?"
Most Qigong requires a set of standard movements to be practiced. This set of movements is called "Qigong". The famous ones include "Xiang Gong", "Intelligence Gong", etc.
What Gao Guobing practiced happened to be the more famous "intelligent skill".
However, Gao Mingcheng, who was in his previous life, was currently struggling in the shopping mall and had not followed the trend of practicing qigong.
Qigong was popular for several years, but finally settled down and was only passed down as a mysterious hobby of some small groups.
Therefore, Gao Mingcheng originally dismissed Qigong, but now he has obtained those two pages of gold foil. After meditating every night, his physical fitness has improved.
He suddenly thought, if he practiced Qigong, would there be any good changes?
This speculation made his heart start to move.
