"Cherish the wind! Cherish the wind! Let's go play horseback riding and fight together! Grandpa will come soon, and he will have to endorse it again." A dark and thin child stood on the threshold of the private school and called to a fair child inside. arrive.
This fair boy is Yi Xifeng who has returned to youth. At this time, he was looking at the book in his hand in front of a folded book. He furrowed his cute eyebrows and said in an old-fashioned way: "Heizi, you have been thinking about fun all day, and you are half an hour late for your morning reading today."
The boy with a straight face said: "Don't call me Heizi, my name is Lin Fenghuo, you can call me Fenghuo." Then Lin Fenghuo smiled and said: "That's not half an hour late..."
"Yeah, you're half an hour early for the next class, right?" Yi Xifeng joked.
Then the two looked at each other, smiled, and ran out of the school together.
The fair boy is Yi Xifeng, who has returned to a new world and returned to another world. The skinny and dark boy next to him is the first friend he has met here and is currently his only friend.
Because of his dark and thin appearance, Yi Xifeng reminded Yi Xifeng of his former best friend Heizi on Earth. Therefore, Yi Xifeng simply called him Heizi. But the skinny black boy obviously didn't like this name.
"Xifeng, why do you always get up so early? And you study very hard! Do you think it is useful to read those collections of scriptures and history?" Lin Fenghuo asked Yi Xifeng while holding a stick and peeling off the bark.
"The more you use the book, the less you will regret it. The more you know about the world, the more benefits you will get." Yi Xifeng smiled shyly.
"I don't think it's of much use, at least for me. My dream is to practice martial arts, meet the world's masters, and become the best in the world..." The thin black boy waved the wooden tip in his hand proudly , at this time the wooden tip has turned into something similar to a wooden knife.
"Then what?" Yi Xifeng asked, blinking.
Lin Fenghuo was smiling proudly at the fair boy. When he heard what he said, he felt he didn't know how to answer. He touched his head and asked, "Then? I don't know. Help my father forge iron?" The thin and dark boy tentatively asked. Ask yourself. But he quickly gave a negative answer: "No, I want to ask the best blacksmith in the world to help my father forge iron!"
Just when Lin Fenghuo was wondering whether hiring the best blacksmith to help his father blacksmith would take away his father's business, Yi Xifeng said: "I'm not that ambitious. I just want to see different scenery in the world."
"The world?" The skinny black boy looked at the other person in confusion.
"Oh, the world means the world's rivers and lakes, which are bigger than the world and deeper than the rivers and lakes!"
The two little kids were chatting in the wild and telling their dreams.
This is the third year since Yi Xifeng came to this world. Calculated by his age in this world, he is already five years old. It took him one year to learn the language of this world, and another year to understand it.
The continent they live on is very vast, with extremely rich topography and landforms. There are powerful rules of heaven and earth on this continent. If you can clearly understand these rules of heaven and earth, you can use the power of heaven and earth to strengthen yourself. Therefore, in this world, masters of martial arts can often transcend the world.
The experience of two lives made Yi Xifeng understand that knowledge is sometimes more important than martial arts, so since he learned the language of this world, he has been constantly acquiring all kinds of knowledge in this world.
After two years of continuous learning, Yi Xifeng discovered that the world was much larger than he imagined. The village where he lived was called Yinren Village, and the people in the village rarely communicated with the outside world. It's just that every six months, merchants who are running business will go to the nearest county town, Luoye City, to do business.
However, Yinren Village has a good guard system, but how good is it specifically? Yi Xifeng had never left the village to go to other places, so he couldn't compare and he didn't dare to draw any conclusions.
As an orphan, Bai Jingtong usually lives in the village chief's house. He has been living here since he was brought back by the village chief three years ago, and Lin Fenghuo is the village chief's grandson.
Yi Xifeng walked towards the north of the village while chatting with the other party.
To the north of Yinren Village is a vast open space, about a hundred feet long and wide. This is the martial arts field of Yinren Village.
Further north of the martial arts field is a low hill with dense trees. From a distance, you can see the camp guarding the village and the watchtower on the hill.
As an independent village, Yinren Village has less than 2,000 villagers. Among them, there are about 1,200 young adults between the ages of 18 and 40.
The manager of Yinren Village is the village chief Lin Hengshan, and the highest authority in Yinren Village is the Council of Elders headed by the three elders. On the surface, even the village chief must obey the decisions of the Council of Elders.
Every child living in Yinren Village begins to receive "art training" organized by the Presbyterian Church from the age of five.
The so-called "learning skills" are to teach these children the most basic survival skills.
Starting at Mao Shi (six o'clock in the morning), there is an hour of morning literacy, lectures, and history interpretation. This kind of course is called "Tongyi", and everyone needs to participate.
Starting from Chenshi (8 a.m.), you can choose between "Martial Arts" and "Literary Arts". "Martial arts" include running, jumping, standing, fighting, and shooting; "literary arts" include recognition, identification, arithmetic, erudition, and calligraphy.
At noon (12 o'clock noon), take an hour's lunch break.
Starting from noon (2 p.m.), "art practice" begins. "Refining skills" can be divided into three stages: the first stage, children aged five to seven years old move freely; the second stage, boys aged seven to ten years old, "martial arts boys" go to the surrounding forests to hunt designated prey, "literary arts" "Youths" go to the surrounding woods to collect designated herbs; in the third stage, ten to twelve-year-olds, "Martial Arts Boys" follow the village guards on missions, and "Arts Boys" follow merchants to Luoye City to learn business.
The early spring sunshine leaks into the treetops like golden threads and shines on the martial arts field.
Looking at the more than 30 young men studying martial arts in the martial arts arena, both Yi Xifeng and Lin Fenghuo showed longing in their eyes.
Heizi will turn five in two months and will start his artistic career, while Yi Xifeng will have to wait another five months to turn five. However, as a veteran of two lifetimes, he knows that time is like gold.
Therefore, from the age of four, Yi Xifeng insisted on participating in "art training" and morning reading. However, because he was too young to participate in martial arts training, Yi Xifeng followed him to study literature and art.
"Literature" is mainly divided into: knowledge, preliminary understanding of plants and animals; discrimination, preliminary identification of medicinal materials and poisons; calculation, arithmetic, simple accounting; gambling, simple game and business methods; books, basic writing methods of articles.
Although Yi Xifeng's physical age is only four years old, his mental age is far beyond that of these five- and six-year-old kids. He completed the first stage of "literary and artistic" in just one year. Now he follows a group of eight-year-olds every afternoon. The nine-year-old went to the surrounding woods to collect herbs.
Therefore, in the woods around Yinren Village, we often see a group of eight or nine-year-old boys, among which there is a boy with a pink and jade look, carrying a medicine basket about the same size as him.
Yi Xifeng's talent surprised even Dr. Wang, who taught Yi Xifeng the knowledge of medicinal materials. However, he knew that he did not have much talent in medicine. The only advantage he had was that he had a mature soul.
This advantage is naturally very prominent among a group of five- and six-year-old children, but when collecting herbs with a group of eight- and nine-year-old teenagers, this advantage is not so obvious. Occasionally, some teenagers who are really talented in medicinal materials can do better than Yi Xifeng is even better.
Until the day when Yi Xifeng turned five years old, after finishing an afternoon of collecting herbs, Yi Xifeng handed a basket full of medicinal materials to Mr. Wang in the medicine shop. Under the approving eyes of the other party, Yi Xifeng smiled. Then he said: "Old man, I won't be here until tomorrow."
Mr. Wang was stunned for a moment, then asked with a smile: "What? You want to follow the caravan to the city again? Brat, I told you before, you are still young, although you are a master in identifying medicines and poisons Yes, but it still needs training.”
"No, what I mean is that I won't learn this literary and artistic skill in the future." Yi Xifeng said, staring at Mr. Wang seriously.
"If you don't want to learn literary skills? Then what should you learn?" the other party asked in confusion.
"Martial arts!" Yi Xifeng said two words decisively, his eyes filled with enthusiasm!
Mr. Wang saw the enthusiasm and persistence in Yi Xifeng's eyes, and he was surprised and felt a little regretful at the same time.
After Yi Xifeng made his decision, he kept staring at Mr. Wang. Although learning martial arts has always been my dream, after all, I followed him for two years and learned the art of recognition and discrimination, and I am still very grateful to this stern old man.
Yi Xifeng bowed deeply and saluted Mr. Wang, turned around and walked firmly towards the door of the drug store. When he was about to walk out of the drug store, Yi Xifeng said in a childish accent:
“There is no priority between civil and military affairs;
He holds a sword as well as a pen.
Righteousness shakes the world,
Heroic throughout the world.
The sword in the hero's hand,
The pen in Mr.'s hand.
Don’t talk about essays and martial arts,
Studying art when you are young! "
