Chapter 2 Difficult situation

In the memory of my mind, my previous life is another name.

The last scene in my memory was drinking alone on Valentine’s Day. I don’t know if I drank too much and traveled back in time, or if I drank too much and went home and fell asleep.

My parents, relatives, friends, and lovers from my previous life have all become distant and out of reach existences.

Can you let it go? It’s really hard to let it go. I have no choice but to accept it.

I have thought about the possibility of going back countless times. As a person who is not even an ant in the material world, I have no knowledge of the practical operation of traveling through time and space, so the possibility of going back is infinitely close to zero.

.

Or there is another possibility: what happened countless epochs ago has long been lost in the long river of time, and I just accidentally awakened a memory that should have disappeared long ago.

No matter what the reason is, the result is here. Thinking too much will only increase your troubles. If you really have hope in cultivating immortality, you can travel through time and space and go against the flow of time.

Now, all the past events are carried by the wind, fluttering in the wind...



In addition to Zhou Tai, Zhou Tai's parents also have three children. Because he is the second child, his nickname is Er Gouzi. If it were not for the fact that he is the second child, his nickname would probably be the word Gou Zi.

There are three other children, an elder brother, a younger brother and a younger sister.

The elder brother is already fifteen. According to the calculation here, he is already an adult and has not yet started a family. He is currently the main labor force in the family. The younger brother and sister are twins and are seven years old this year.

It is said that he had an older sister, but she died in infancy, so in order for Zhou Tai to survive, he was given a nickname that would make him easy to support.

Feeling that it was almost time to leave for dinner, Zhou Tai started to walk home. The house was made of mud and thatch, with three mud and thatched houses surrounding a small courtyard.

Dinner is half a bowl of porridge with some wild vegetables. As the main labor force in the family, my father and brother eat dry rice, but they will not eat too much. After all, the food at home is limited, and they are just busy farming.

Eat like this when you are hungry, otherwise you will have no strength.

Zhou Tai ate very slowly, not because he didn't want to eat, but because it tasted bad, but he would be hungry if he didn't eat, but he wouldn't be full after eating, but he was relatively less hungry.

Except for festivals or special harvests, we don’t have a few full meals a year.

The traps I made to capture small animals, except for some initial harvest, later became increasingly difficult to harvest.

I don’t know what it’s like for others to travel through time and cultivate immortality, but there should be very few people like me who have traveled through time and not had enough to eat for ten consecutive years.

While Zhou Tai was thinking about this, Zhou Tai's father turned his attention to him.

"Er Gouzi, your face is so dirty and you don't wash it. In a few years, you will be old enough to marry a wife." He sighed again and continued: "You are so lazy, I don't know if you are.

The girl is willing to marry you."

"My brother has grown old, so he still doesn't have a wife?" This was what Zhou Tai was thinking in his mind, but he didn't say it out loud, otherwise he would be unable to finish eating the half bowl of porridge.

You are not afraid of others being unreasonable, but you are afraid that others will think you are reasonable, and you will not listen to what others say and think you are right.

Especially when two people with different ideas meet, it is difficult to distinguish right from wrong.

"Wash your face before eating next time." Father Zhou said again in a serious tone.

"I know." Zhou Tai replied in a low voice. It's not that he's a coward. He's eating and drinking from this family. He really can't be tough anymore, and this is his closest relative in this life.

Even if you don’t feel full if you eat half a bowl of porridge, if you don’t have the supply of half a bowl of porridge, you may have starved to death long ago.

As for the issue of dirty face, it is really not dirty. As a pretentious person who can have a good complexion for the future cultivation of immortality, how can he let his face be dirty every day?

Wouldn’t that affect the pores and the skin? Ultimately, it would affect the already low-looking appearance!

That's not dirty, that's a protective color. It can not only protect your face and skin, but also prevent others from being jealous.

Think about it, most of the people in the village are as tanned as African refugees. I am already hated by people because I don’t work. My face is fair and my skin is as fair and tender as that of a child from a wealthy family. If I walk outside, wouldn’t I be even more attractive?

Are people jealous?

Wouldn't it make the bad life here even worse?

The mud on my face is specially made by myself. It looks dirty, but I add a lot of substances that I think are nutritious. I also did a simple allergy test first to make sure there is no problem before using it.

It looks like mud, but it's not. Most of the raw materials are herbs rich in nutrients.

If Zhou Tai was put into water, washed well, and then taken out, many people who knew him would not believe it.

There is no doubt that he himself often cleans his whole body by a remote river, and then applies a layer of his own special beauty mud, so the real Zhou Tai is different from the Zhou Tai who usually shows up in front of everyone.

In fact, as a man, rolling around in the mud is a routine operation. He takes good care of his skin like a little girl. There has never been an environment that is so convenient for skin care as in his previous life, but he has to do it in this life. God knows those cultivators.

Yan Gou or not, in the face of the big rights and wrongs of cultivating immortals, safety is the most important thing. But since I am skinny and skinny, I have no choice but to try my best to be the best I think.

In order to prevent the food he eats from being digested too quickly, Zhou Tai exercises as little as possible. He never stands when he can sit, and never sits when he can lie down. This is another reason why people think he is lazy.

In fact, if he helped the family with more farm work, he could eat more, but since he did nothing, his parents would not take care of him.



It's not like he never thought about going out alone. Within a dozen miles, Zhou Tai was familiar with him. No matter how far away he was, he wouldn't dare to leave alone.

We need protection but no protection, we need strength but no strength, we need money but no money, and we don’t have food. How can we get out? If we leave, we are risking our lives.

Zhou Tai, who thinks he has a bright future, of course cannot take risks, so he is equivalent to being trapped here.

Moreover, Zhou Tai inquired and found that the nearest town from here is also fifty miles away. Unless he is determined to never return, this is a distance that he cannot overcome at present.

Even if you reach a town fifty miles away, so what? You are just jumping from a small puddle to another larger puddle. The best way is to travel around the world while being able to protect yourself. Only in that way can you survive.

I hope to encounter an opportunity to cultivate immortality.

For Zhou Tai's background and environment, it is difficult to cultivate immortality and reach the sky.

The days of cultivating immortals may be boring, and a retreat may last for a long time, but the days of cultivating immortals are far away, and they are not even qualified to live boring and boring days of cultivating immortals.

If he hadn't known that he had a cheat and spent ten years here, Zhou Tai would probably have given up on the idea of ​​cultivating immortality. He was really not a determined person.

It’s not that I don’t have ideals, it’s not that I don’t have ambitions for longevity, it’s just that I have a clearer understanding of my own position and needs, and I know that it’s not easy, or even difficult, and I have the confidence that a plug-in can only have.

Just like a jobless vagrant, it is difficult to be an official. It is very difficult without a certain amount of luck.

But once you see an opportunity, you have to give it a try.
