Chapter 1 Su Hanshan
In the early morning, the sky is bright.
The sound of cockcrows was heard in the distance, and the birds on the branches also began to chirp.
Su Hanshan sat in a wheelchair and opened the door.
His room had no threshold, just to facilitate wheelchair access. The copper basin and towel for washing his face were placed on his unconscious legs, and he turned the wheel with his hands to reach the yard.
There is a well and a bucket in the courtyard. The wellhead is partially sealed with a stone slab, which is just large enough for the small bucket to pass through.
Although Su Hanshan was sitting in a wheelchair, it was not difficult to fetch water. He turned the wheelchair sideways to the well mouth, grabbed the rope beside the well with one hand and shook it.
The sound of the small bucket hitting the water echoed in his ears with a sense of clarity.
After washing, Su Hanshan poured the water in the basin under the old tree in the yard, and filled half of the basin with water in a bucket, preparing to soak the towel and rub it.
Putting the towel into the water, he watched the water surface in the copper basin gradually calm down, reflecting his own face, and unconsciously became distracted.
What was reflected on the water was the face of a young man, with thick black eyebrows, red lips and white teeth, and a good complexion. Looking at this face alone, it was difficult to tell that this was a person whose legs had been paralyzed for five years.
Of course, you can’t even see this person’s soul. He is actually in his thirties.
My previous life on earth and the convenience of the 21st century seem a bit far away.
When he regained consciousness in this life, he was still a newborn baby. Perhaps his brain had not yet developed well and he was very sleepy. He did not have much time to stay awake and think throughout the day.
When he was six or seven months old, he realized that this was the Chu Dynasty, and his parents in this life were the couple who owned the Songhe Martial Arts Hall in Xueling County and Cangshui County.
It was quite awkward to have an adult's mind in a baby's shell, but he soon discovered the greatest joy.
The martial arts in this world are like those in martial arts novels. They can develop internal strength, move objects through the air, perform light skills, and climb on the ground and cross water.
The desire for this extraordinary ability, plus the baby's body has no other pleasure.
When Su Hanshan was two years old, he had already consciously learned the basic breathing and breathing techniques, which surprised and delighted his father, who called him a genius.
In fact, everyone is in a period of rapid development before the age of seven. If you can lay a good foundation for internal breathing and breathing at this stage, the benefits in the future are self-evident.
But for normal children, everything they see at this age is novel, and it is difficult for them to concentrate on learning and absorbing such boring things for a long time. Even if those big families force their offspring to be cultivated, the effect may not be very good in the early childhood.
Su Hanshan took advantage of this and became extremely powerful among his peers. Coupled with the praise from people around him, he was very happy and the more he practiced, the harder he worked.
By the time he was twelve years old, although he had only learned some basic boxing and kicking skills, in terms of internal strength, he had already surpassed many adult disciples in the martial arts school.
Then, during the Lantern Festival this year, Su Hanshan was hit by a poisonous needle while he was out on the street with his family elders.
His life was saved, but the toxins accumulated, damaging his flesh and tendons, causing him to lose feeling in his legs.
Even with an adult's mind, Su Hanshan's mentality was a little out of control in the first one or two months, and he didn't know how he got here.
Later he gradually adapted and tried to cheer up.
After all, there is internal strength in this world. Maybe if you practice deeper and stronger, you can restore your healthy limbs?
"Huh..."
Su Hanshan came back to his senses, shook his head, and began to wash the towel.
Five years have passed, and his internal strength has not allowed him to stand up, but the operation of his internal strength has prevented his legs from shrinking abnormally. From the appearance, these legs and feet are also growing with his age, copper basin It's quite stable when placed on your lap.
And with the blessing of internal strength, his upper body can exert extraordinary strength. After practice, he can handle trivial matters such as eating, drinking, and defecating.
For example, in the latrine, there is a wooden stake erected next to the latrine pit, and a wooden stick is embedded horizontally on the wooden stake.
When you are in the hut on Su Han Mountain, you only need to hold on to the wooden pole with your left hand to maintain the balance of the entire body. Use your right hand to place your two legs on the horizontal wooden stick in turn, and then go convenient.
Even if he wants to go to another hut, he only needs to bring two long and short wooden sticks, temporarily build a similar frame, and inject internal strength to make the wood temporarily more durable.
After finishing washing, Su Hanshan returned the copper basin to the house. Before he could turn around, a tall figure entered the door.
"Haha, Xiaoshan, look at this fish! I got up early today and went to the river to cast a rod. Guess what, when the first rod went down, the fish stupidly took the bait, haha Haha.”
Su Hanshan turned the wheelchair around, and a big sturgeon, about five feet long, almost came to his eyes, and the fishy smell hit his nostrils.
"Second uncle."
Su Hanshan tilted his head and looked at Su Tieyi. He saw this majestic man with a wide forehead and tiger eyes and a short beard, wearing a damp black suit. , the temples are also a little messy, a few strands of hair are stuck to the forehead, and there are some grass blades on the trouser legs and the edges of the shoes.
The black clothes were only damp, evenly wet. It was obvious that he had been in a place with deep fog and heavy dew for a long time. Some of the grass juice had changed color on the trouser legs and had been stained for a long time.
Is this fish the first one caught today?
It’s pretty much the last shot last night. "Sure enough, it's such a big fish. My second uncle's fishing level is getting better and better."
Su Hanshan gave a thumbs up and said with a smile, "In a while, it will be It’s time for this year’s autumn hunting. My second uncle caught such a big fish and asked the chef to cook it today. It’s time for all the brothers to try it.”
"Just in time, let's take a look and see how they have been practicing these days. Before the autumn hunting, we can plan this year's team for them and cultivate a tacit understanding."
Su Tieyi suddenly said: "Oh, yes, this year's team Autumn hunting is coming soon again.”
It’s time to give them more guidance these days. They need to be energetic during the day and don’t fish all night long.
My eldest sister-in-law died of illness when Xiaoshan was young. My eldest brother was originally the owner of the hotel, but two years ago he was invited by a friend of the escort agency to go out as an escort. As a result, there was no news about the entire escort team.
Every time Su Tieyi thinks that he is now the owner of Songhe Martial Arts School and the only remaining instructor, he will remind himself that he must not be careless in business matters.
Last year was the first time that he led people to participate in the autumn hunting as the owner of the museum, so he was not careless. However, this year, the stable days were longer, so his mentality was inevitably a little relaxed.
It’s still not rigorous enough.
"Okay, I'll send the fish to the kitchen right now."
Su Tieyi said cheerfully, "Peel the meat to make pickled fish fillets, and stew the fish bones into soup. When it's done, I'll I’ll send you one first.”
Before he finished speaking, he took the fish and walked away in a hurry.
After the fish was delivered to the kitchen, Su Tieyi immediately went to the front yard of the martial arts hall to have a look.
A dozen disciples, some were sitting in meditation and some were practicing boxing techniques.
It was still early at this time, and most of the disciples of the martial arts school had already arrived. No one could say that they were not working hard, but Su Tieyi looked through the courtyard gate for a moment, and felt like sighing in his heart.
Cangshui County is the most prosperous and prosperous place in the nearby counties. It has convenient water and land transportation, prosperous industries, and many wealthy households.
The owners of martial arts schools that can be opened in this county are naturally very capable and have no worries about students.
When the Songhe Martial Arts School was at its most prosperous, there were nearly two hundred disciples. Their performance in the autumn hunt had been the best for several years.
When wealthy people were doing business, the mountains and rivers were far away and there were many dangerous places in the jungle. In addition to their own young men, servants, shop assistants, etc., they often had to temporarily hire a large number of martial arts disciples to act as bodyguards.
Which company to hire in the next year will basically be decided based on Qiu Lie’s performance.
Local wealthy families also take Qiu Lie's performance into consideration when hiring guards for their direct line elders and hiring tutors for their children.
So at that time, the name of Songhe Martial Arts School was almost the signature of the entire Cangshui County. There was a lot of traffic and guests gathering in front of the door.
However, since Su Hanshan was paralyzed, several other martial arts schools did not know whether they had premeditated it or felt that they would be suspected, so they simply struck first.
In the autumn hunt of that year, they put aside their old grudges and joined forces to attack the disciples of Songhe Martial Arts School.
Many disciples were seriously injured, more or less suffering from the root of the disease, or even becoming disabled.
After that, those companies ignored the rules and directly broke the minimum price. They would rather suffer some losses themselves and took away the business related to the martial arts industry that year.
Songhe Martial Arts School has been marginalized for three years in a row. The owner of the gym disappeared while he was escorting himself. The few remaining instructors were also poached with high salaries, taking away their own direct disciples.
By the time Su Tieyi took over the martial arts school, it was already in dire straits and it was hard to return.
He led the team to participate in the autumn hunting last year, but struggled until the end and finished at the bottom, even being far ahead of the penultimate place.
This year he subconsciously avoided matters related to autumn hunting because he saw no hope.
"If we quit, the reputation of the martial arts school will be completely ruined, and it will be difficult for the remaining disciples to find a way out."
Su Tieyi's face was dull, his hands were folded in front of his chest, and his heart was extremely depressed. , "They insist on staying until today, I can't feel sorry for them."
"But if we still go to participate, maybe some of them will follow in the footsteps of Xiao Shan and others."
Lifelong disability is not just a casual word, but what he has experienced with his own eyes in the past five years. Seeing his nephew and seeing the lives of martial arts disciples who are as close as nephews after being disabled, a huge pressure built up in his heart.
“You still have to participate!!”
Su Tieyi tried hard to suppress those distracting thoughts.
You can't be decadent, you can't admit defeat, the reputation of the martial arts school is still there, you can still get some business, earn some money, and take care of those disabled disciples.
If it collapses completely, there will really be no way out.
