Chapter 327 Vigil
Chapter 327 Vigil
At noon, Zhao Yun cooked a meal at the old Taoist priest's place. The two of them sat around the small hot pot, eating mutton, sipping wine and eating mutton, feeling very comfortable.
During the meal, the old Taoist priest finally gave Zhao Yun the quick version of Bing Zi Jue. "Yes, just teach them according to this! If they practice this well, it will be no problem to increase their speed by 5% if they can run 100 meters in 10 seconds."
Zhao Yun was overjoyed after hearing this. Five percent, that's too much! It's indeed the Taoist Nine-Character Mantra, so powerful!
Zhao Yun picked up a piece of meat and dipped it in the pot three times and four times. "Master, how long will it take to learn this?"
"It's easy to practice, but it's hard to persevere. However, they are athletes themselves, so it shouldn't be a problem if they persevere. We'll see results in about three months, and we'll be able to master it in six months!"
After hearing this, Zhao Yun quickly toasted the old Taoist priest and said, "Master, you have done a great deed!"
The old Taoist stroked his beard and said meaningfully, "This is indeed a huge amount!"
Zhao Yun immediately understood the hidden meaning of the Taoist priest's words.
"If that's what the Taoist priest said, I'll give you a bottle of magnolia seeds a day, how will you respond?"
After hearing this, the Taoist laughed heartily and said, "Great! Your future is limitless!"
"If you say so, I'll tell you a secret. This quick version of Bing Zi Jue can actually be used to lose weight! If you don't want to do sports in the future, you can set up a weight loss center to keep you from starving to death! Is this enough to cope with your one bottle of Mao Zi you drink every day?"
"Does it still have this effect?"
"The effect is extremely significant. Can I lose weight visibly?"
Zhao Yun smiled and said, "Can you go slower?"
The Taoist rolled his eyes at him and said, "I already felt that you were not a good person, and now I feel that even more."
"Haha! Taoist priest, why don't you come with me and return to secular life? I'll help you open a fitness center! Take off your clothes and show your muscular body, and I'll have someone take a picture of you as a sign! How do you think?"
The Taoist priest glanced at Zhao Yun and said coldly, "If you think your coffin is well made, it will be fine!"
Zhao Yun smiled awkwardly, "Why are you saying something so unlucky on New Year's Day? Fill up your glasses quickly, come on, drink!"
In the afternoon, Zhao Yun practiced some skills with the old Taoist priest again.
The sky slowly became dark!
Zhao Yun said goodbye to the Taoist priest, came out from the back courtyard, and looked at the main temple in front where many people were burning incense.
When they saw Zhao Yun, they all greeted him warmly, "Zhao Yun, you're back, why don't you go out? I can't even see you!"
Zhao Yun knew that this was just a polite remark, so he did not respond. Instead, he said, "Aunt Li! I'm here to burn incense! The Bodhisattva will surely bless you to have your wish come true this year!"
"Haha! I can lend you some good words!"
"Brother Wang, will you come to the temple to set off firecrackers on New Year's Eve this year?"
"Go ahead! I made a lot of money with your dad this year, and I've already bought the firecrackers! I'm going to set off ninety-nine firecrackers in the temple at twelve o'clock tonight!"
"Haha! Then I'll listen to your firecrackers and eat!"
"Don't worry! It won't be off by even a cent."
Zhao Yun smiled and said hello to the others, then went down the mountain and went home. They watched Zhao Yun's back as he went down the mountain, "The Zhao family is now the best among us!"
"Of course not. I heard that Zhao Yun has a big villa in the city and a house in Yanjing!"
"Really? That would cost a lot of money, at least tens of millions!"
"Wow! Zhao Yun has really made it. When Zhao Yun was just injured, the villagers gossiped that girls would not date someone like Zhao Yun, fearing that they would have no future security! Now, can Zhao Yun even look at them straight in the eye?"
"Alas! We can only say that Zhao Yun deserves credit for himself! Hurry up and burn incense!"
Zhao Yun returned home, washed his hands quickly, and went to the kitchen to help his mother make dumplings. His father went to the breeding shed in the back mountain to watch the cows give birth and had not returned yet.
"How come you're gone to the old Taoist priest's place for a whole day?"
"The old Taoist priest is a good person. I don't have much people to hang out with after I came back. My old friends are no longer my friends! We have nothing to talk about."
"Just live our own lives. You roll the dough and I'll knead it. It's getting dark! Let's knead it quickly. If your dad comes back later and doesn't have a meal, he'll start nagging again!"
"Ok!"
Zhao Yun and his mother worked together and quickly made a basket of dumplings.
After the water boiled, Wei Shuhong said, "Do you want to eat first or wait for your dad to come back? If you want to eat first, I'll put it in for you."
"Wait for Dad to come back!"
"Okay then, wait for me to come back and replace your dad!"
Wei Shuhong was washing her hands. Zhao Yun looked at his mother and said, "Mom, why don't you take care of others? You are so tired every day. Is our family short of money?"
"Come back and ask your dad!"
"Mom, let me go! You stay home and wait for Dad to come back!"
"You've been back for a few days, talk to your dad!"
Zhao Yun nodded
After a while, Dad Zhao Yiming came back.
While washing his hands, Zhao Yiming told Zhao Yun, "Make dumplings!"
Zhao Yun quickly put the dumplings into the pot. After a while, the dumplings came up, and Zhao Yiming took out two cups and poured wine into them, "Did you drink too much at the old Taoist priest's today?"
"no!"
"Okay, let's have a couple of drinks!"
The two of them touched each other, and Zhao Yun said, "Dad, our family is not short of money now. You and Mom are so tired every day, why don't you hire a few people to do the work!"
"What do you know? The reason we are where we are now is because of your achievements. Your achievements may not last a lifetime, but I can do this for a lifetime."
Zhao Yun asked in confusion, "What does this have to do with hiring people?"
"You know how many famous people are worse off than beggars after falling into poverty? It's easy to go from frugality to luxury, but it's hard to go from luxury to frugality. This is the last insurance I left for you. Don't worry about it. Just focus on your career outside and don't break the law. I know what your mother and I do at home."
Every time the two talked, there was this kind of tit-for-tat feeling, which made Zhao Yun feel a little like he was being ordered around.
"I just think you two are too tired. There's no need to do this!"
Zhao Yiming also felt that his words were a bit stiff, so he softened his tone and said, "I know what you are thinking. Your mother and I can still move. You don't have to worry too much about the family!"
"You may have a better life in the future, but your mother and I are used to living in the village. It's not suitable for us to leave. Let's do something in the village. If we can help the villagers, that's even better. If not, we won't be so destitute that we will be looked down upon by others."
Zhao Yun glanced at Zhao Yiming, "Well! Dad, what I want to say is that I have grown up!"
After Zhao Yun finished speaking, Zhao Yiming raised his glass and was about to take a sip but stopped.
"Yeah, you've grown up! Come on son, have a drink with dad!"
The two clinked glasses in silence, which was louder than words.
In the evening, after dinner, Dad changed Mom back. Zhao Yun accompanied Mom to eat a few more dumplings, and then the two of them made dumplings for the next day and froze them.
The two of them watched the Spring Festival Gala on TV together until twelve o'clock. Zhao Yiming took some time to come back and set off firecrackers before returning to watch the livestock production.
