Chapter 2 The old cow, the fish monster(1/2)

Bang bang bang!

Ding Niu is training hard again.

It was the spring plowing season, and the pearl rice seeds had not yet been planted in the fields. Liangjia'ao had the most relaxed arrangements for these farm servants.

After the grain seeds are sown, we must always be on guard against birds, ground insects, and livestock, and divert water for irrigation. Then we divide the fields for transplanting, fertilize the soil and weed, and when the pearl rice matures, it is harvested and stored in a complete cycle.

Someone has to take care of you all day long, and by that time, you won’t have so much free time.

After Ding Niu finished his work, he went to a remote place to practice his strength, moves, and kept doing various movements.

Throughout the Liangjia Valley, there are many people practicing martial arts. Most of them are servants and guards who have been put on duty to enhance their strength and want to be reused and promoted in the garrison.

Ding Niu once peeped at an old soldier practicing martial arts. He was caught once and spared his life because he was young. However, Ding Niu was also severely beaten. Later, the soldier saw that he was pitiful and taught him a lesson.

Some tips for practicing Qigong.

Upstairs is the stance exercise, which exercises leg and waist strength. The Siping stance lasts for more than an hour, which is two hours.

Then I started boxing, which was a set of unknown long boxing skills that everyone in Jinxi Town knew, and I did it thirty times a day, which took another two hours.

A hundred times of boxing, a hundred days of work.

This happens every day.

Take this as a requirement and take this as a goal.

Those who can persist will continue, and those who cannot persist will be eliminated.

Has anyone mastered it?

Most of them are professional soldiers and warriors.

But there are very few farm servants like Ding Niu who can be trained.

There are a total of twelve hours in a day, and it takes six or seven hours to complete the assigned farm work and chores, and four hours of hard training, which is equivalent to using all the rest time to practice.

The vast majority of them have either lost their health, lowered their requirements, or given up halfway.

Ding Niu persevered and persisted until now. He also used Qi machine induction to develop true Qi.

It was a pity that the old soldier could no longer be seen. Ding Niu found out that he went to the battlefield two years ago and the old soldier died on the battlefield.

After Ding Niu learned the news, he exercised even more diligently.

Punch after punch, sweat splashed everywhere, shining brightly under the night light.

Bang bang bang!

Ding Niu hit the tree stump, and then hit it hundreds of times. He felt like stars were scattered in front of his eyes, his head was buzzing, and he was extremely exhausted.

My stomach was growling with hunger. The little meat and grains I had eaten at night had been completely digested, and my physical strength was stretched to the limit.

There is nothing in the stomach, and there is no strength. No matter how strong your willpower is, you can't persevere.

Ding Niu panted heavily and sighed inwardly.

After years of hard training, his progress is not slow, but this is due to his quick recovery at a young age and his overstretched body. His will and determination can persevere, but his body feels very tired and exhausted.

He knows that a big part of it is that the food he eats is not nutritious enough.

The soldiers guarding the mansion ate plenty of fish and meat every day. The lieutenants and generals ate ginseng and bird's nest as their rations. They also had a supply of pearl rice, which was rich in nutrients and full of spiritual energy, but he couldn't compare to it.

If you continue like this, let alone become a peerless master, you should be thankful if you can develop your Qi to the middle level.

If he were drafted into the battlefield, he would probably die as easily as the old soldier.

He tried to escape, but couldn't. He couldn't defeat any of the soldiers he picked up in the garrison. He was caught as a deserter and executed directly.

No matter what, he doesn't want to live a useless life or die a useless person.

Ding Niu lay on the ground for a while, enduring the pain all over his body and walked back.

If you don't go back to rest, you won't be able to get up in the morning, you won't be able to make it in time for breakfast, and you won't be able to complete the distribution...a vicious cycle, it will be miserable.

The daily schedule is like a tight tightrope. He has pushed himself to the limit. If any part of it goes wrong, it is likely to be catastrophic.

It was already late at night, and Ding Niu was the only one in Liangjia'ao who was practicing so hard, and some nearby practitioners had already left.

Ding Niu walked out from the mountain col and walked back step by step.

Moo! Moo!

Why did the cow escape?

"The people who are looking after the cattle are too careless!" Upon hearing it, Ding Niu knew that it was the cry of cattle. After the assignment was completed, all the cattle would be returned to the cattle room, the number plates were handed over, the responsibilities were clear, and the numbers were

Hundreds of cattle are fed, supervised and cared for in a unified manner.

If the cow ran outside in the middle of the night, it must have been because the person looking after the cow was asleep and deserted. If he didn't retrieve it before work started tomorrow morning, he would be whipped and his skin would be torn.

Ding Niu hurriedly walked over and wanted to help bring the cow back. When the time comes, he would ask the cow caretaker to help take care of his old cow, and that would be okay.

Under the moonlight, an old cow with grey-white lips licked its tongue, flicked its tail, and mooed slightly at the dingo.

Old cow?

Ding Niu was surprised, and then became worried.

When a lost cow is recaptured, the person who looks after it will inevitably take out his anger on it. In such a state, the old cow will be sold or slaughtered immediately, let alone beaten. If the caretaker says that it is old and useless, it will be sold or slaughtered immediately, and the end will be dire.

.

Ding Niu's heart tightened, and he thought to himself that he would be able to pull it back later. He would have to ask for a favor and shoulder the responsibility himself. Although a whipping was inevitable, he was thick-skinned and strong enough to bear it.

Besides, since it was spring plowing, they wouldn't beat him too hard, or just note it down for the time being, and he would still need to help next time.

He was also surprised in his heart that the old cow had always understood human nature and was not like those wild cows running around, so why did he suddenly run out.

Ding Niu quickly stepped forward, but before he could get closer, the old cow mooed at him again. His eyes were cloudy, and he slowly turned around and walked straight in the other direction.

Um?

Ding Niu called softly twice more, but Lao Niu did not respond and continued walking. Ding Niu was stunned for a moment, Lao Niu was in a very strange state now.

If you look closely, you will see that the way it walks is swaying and unsteady, and the fur on its back is also very decayed.

Ding Niu saw clearly, suddenly thought of something, and felt a pain in his heart.

He realized that Lao Niu was not going to die for long, and he had just come here to say goodbye to him.

Ding Newton didn't know what to do, and before he knew it, his eyes were a little sore.

He wiped his sore eyes and made no sound.

In the quiet and silent atmosphere, one cow and one person walked one behind the other under the weak moonlight.

Ding Niu knows that many domestic cats, dogs and livestock will leave their homes and find a secluded place to die alone when they know their end is coming. This may be the case for Lao Niu.

He followed silently, preparing to wait for the old cow to die and bury it deeply to avoid being found and taken back for meat. If such a big cow is lost, those who look after the cow will not let it go easily and will definitely come out.

Look for.

Who knows, I will also be given some meat by then and eat it unknowingly.

When Ding Niu thought of this, he felt extremely uncomfortable.

Wow! Wow!

The waves of the Zhao Han River rippled and hit both sides of the river, making them even louder in the middle of the night. Unknowingly, they had arrived at the Zhao Han River.

It is this Zhaohan River that nurtures thousands of acres of Liangjia farmland in Liangjia'ao, making it rich in pearl rice.

thump.

The old cow stepped into the river and sank.

Ding Niu's heart tightened and he quickly followed. Is Lao Niu planning to leave Liangjia'ao from Zhao Hanjiang? Lao Niu is smart and knows that if he stays here, he will be eaten even if he dies.

However, there are dams at both ends of the Zhao Hanjiang River entering and exiting Liangjia'ao. These dams were not built by the governor's office. They existed hundreds of years ago and are now managed by the governor's office.

On the one hand, water is stored for irrigation, and there are dedicated personnel to guard the opening and release of water. On the other hand, it also prevents spies and enemies from easily sneaking in through the waterways.

No matter how knowledgeable Lao Niu is about human nature, he probably won't know this.

If the guards find out, they still can't leave.

Unexpectedly, the old cow did not drift with the river, but sank to the bottom of the water and went deeper.

Zhao Hanjiang didn't know how deep it was, but Ding Niu followed Lao Niu down and unknowingly dived nearly a hundred meters. The deep breath he had taken earlier had long been exhausted. Fortunately, he still had some Qi for emergency use.

On the other hand, Lao Niu seems to be like a fish in water, swaying around, much more briskly than on land.

Ding Niu suddenly thought of a rumor he saw in his previous life: the so-called golden-eyed beast that avoids water is a big buffalo.

At this depth, Ding Niu's true energy was consumed violently, his chest was compressed and his heart was pounding like a drum, which was greater than the consumption of plowing an acre of land. No matter how long it lasted, it would be difficult to hold on.

Ding Niu looked at Lao Niu and found that Lao Niu still had some energy left.

He was about to return. With the old cow's ability, I'm afraid he wouldn't be needed to deal with the aftermath, and those watching the cow wouldn't go so deep into the water to look for it...

There was only a little bit of light at a depth of 100 meters, and it was the stimulation of the eye acupuncture points by the infuriating energy that greatly increased his vision. Moving forward, he could not see clearly what was in front of him, and Ding Niu was also a little flustered.

At this time, the old cow suddenly turned around and leaned towards the shore. Ding Niu felt the fluctuation and his heart moved.
To be continued...
