Chapter 2 Wang Erye's nagging
After helping to carry the things into the store, Wang Chen also received a transfer from Liu Ersao. He took out his jade token and looked at the balance. He had already added 1,200 yuan, which was eighty more than the negotiated price.
"Thank you, second sister-in-law." Wang Chen scratched his head and said.
"You kid, why are you polite to me? Go and go and find your village chief. Because it should be Yuanli's awakening. You are almost twelve years old and you are at the age to enter school." Liu Ersan smiled and waved her hand to remind Wang Chen not to forget what she said just now.
After leaving Liu Ersao's shop, Wang Chen looked up at the bright sun in the sky and couldn't help but sigh. In a blink of an eye, he had been in this world for almost twelve years, and it was really time to grow old.
After shrugging his emotions for a while, Wang Chen walked forward one or two hundred meters, bought two taels of flower carvings at a small wine shop, and cut some braised meat. After packing it, he walked along the mountain path to the middle of the mountain.
After leaving the commercial area at the foot of the mountain, there is a residential area of a small village above. I met all the acquaintances along the way. After smiling and greeting a few people, Wang Chen slowly walked to the gate of a large bluestone tiled house.
This is the home of Wang Erye, the village chief of Xiaochui Village, and it is also the one who saved Wang Chen's life. Wang Chen still clearly remembers that when he came over, he was lying alone in a basin and swaying in the sea. If he hadn't met Wang Erye leading the team out to fish, he would have fed the birds long ago.
Before he was eight years old, Wang Chen basically lived in Erye's house. Later, he would get out of the fish basket and save money for two years before moving out of Erye's house to find an open space on the mountain to build a nest.
I knocked on the door and saw that no one paid attention to Wang Chen, so I pushed the door and walked in. This was a small courtyard, almost four or five hundred square meters, with a small green tiled house on both sides. In the middle, there was the master bedroom of Wang Erye’s house.
There is also a flower tree in the middle of the yard that has lived for nearly 3,000 years. It is called "Yueta White Cherry". It bears fruits once every year. When it blooms, it really smells like a flower, and the fruits it bears are sweet and delicious. I heard that it is a kind of elixir medicinal material. When it bears fruit every year, many people come to buy it.
When Wang Chen was a child, he ate this fruit very much, and the taste looked like peaches. Wang Chen seriously suspected that this thing was probably a hybrid of cherry blossoms and peach trees...
Walking into the yard, an old man was lying leisurely on a wooden rocking chair under the tall peach cherry tree. Next to it was a small square table with some food and fruits and a rectangular unknown object.
This object is a common item in this world. Its full name is "Wanli Radio Listener." To put it bluntly, it is similar to a radio, and it can listen to many programs.
Although Wang Chen's world does not have technology, it is not much worse than before in life. Many things in the past can be found here, just like the jade tag that Wang Chen just collected money, its function is similar to that of mobile phones.
"Is Xiao Chenzi here?" Hearing the steps, the old man raised his eyelids slightly and looked at the direction of the door and shouted slowly.
"Well, is the second master basking in the sun?" Wang Chen walked over and placed the food and flower devils on the square table and asked with a smile.
"Tsk, Huadiao? You are so conscientious. It's not bad. There are also braised pork from Butcher Zheng's family. Boy, are you picking up money?" The old man named Second Master twitched his nose and then a carp rolled over. He looked at the small wine jar on the table and put it on the tip of his nose and smelled it. Then he said intoxicatedly.
"I picked up an iron head and I'm lucky." Wang Chen explained with a smile on the small square stool beside him.
"Well, you are filial. I have picked up the money and come to honor me. I have collected the wine. I am too lazy to cook at noon." The second master seemed very happy. After smelling it, he put the jar on the table and lay back.
Seeing that the second master stopped talking, Wang Chen twitched slightly and could only ask, "Second Master, I heard from Sister Liu Er said you are looking for me?"
"Well, that's right, there's something to do with you." The second master closed his eyes and was silent for a while before replying.
"But what happened to the school?" Wang Chen asked nervously with his eyes lit up.
The second master opened his eyes and looked at Wang Chen again, then said, "You are twelve years old, and you are at the age of going to the college. Although I don't agree, since it is your decision, I don't object. If you think about it, this road is not easy to walk."
Wang Chen laughed and said, "Second Master, it's not a loss to learn one more skill. Besides, everyone wants to go to the college to practice, why do you dislike the college so much?"
"I'm not targeting the academy, just targeting... Forget it, you decide your own path. Anyway, you remember that this world is not as peaceful as you think. The greater your ability, you can't be free and free. A cultivator who seems to be superior is sometimes not as free as an ordinary person." The second master seemed to have tried to say something and stopped again after saying something halfway.
This is not the first time Wang Chen has heard the Second Master say this. The second Master doesn't say the specific reason anyway. Wang Chen was silent for a while and said, "But ordinary people can't see the magnificence and beauty of this world. Second Master, I want to go out and see it. Besides, as long as you work hard to practice and reach the peak, you will be so powerful that no one can defeat you, you will naturally be able to live freely and freely."
The second master, who was rocking the chair with his eyes closed, sneered, "Destiny is important or scenery is important? Do you think that practicing is so simple? Yes, everyone can practice, but talent, hard work, and opportunity are indispensable. Are you so good at the peak? Do you think diligence can make up for your shortcomings? When you grow up, you will understand... Power... The more you get, the more you lose, there will be more people who can reach the peak?"
Wang Chen didn't know what to say, so he could only stand aside and stop saying awkwardly, as if he had remembered some bad memories. After saying this, the second master was silent for nearly five or six minutes before reaching out to wave his hand.
The blue light gathered in Erye's right hand, and then turned into a simple wooden sign and appeared in his hand. Erye was too lazy to open his eyes and handed it to Wang Chen, "Take it, there are still three days left. When you take it, go on a carriage with the same age as the village."
Wang Chen took the sign and looked carefully. He saw that there were a lot of complicated patterns carved around the front of the black wooden sign, and there were three large characters "Saint Michael" engraved in the middle. When he turned to the back, Wang Chen saw some of his personal information.
"Name: Wang Chen
Gender: Male
Age: twelve
Hometown: Yachidame Harbor - Xiaohammer Village
Class: Class 3, Building B, Junior College
Student ID: b-3-26”
Wang Chen was stunned when he saw the complete wooden sign, and then asked for a while, "Is this... the identity card of St. Michael's Academy?"
"What? It's very surprising? Although our Xiaoxiong Village is not a surplus village, at least there have been several masters. There are people from our village in St. Michael's College in Port Yachidame. It's very easy to arrange the little kids in the village to go to school." The second master explained calmly.
"Since you are going to take this path, I don't have other skills to make you start a little better. In the end, it's up to you to what extent you can go."
"Thank you, Second Master." Wang Chen took a deep breath and bent down at Second Master with his fists.
Second Master just snorted and waved his hand impatiently, "Get out, don't disturb Second Master drinking, remember to close the door!"
