Chapter 707 The Life Pressure of Middle-Aged Men

This damn weather, it started snowing again.

Chen Laosi carried a bundle of firewood and walked back to his yard, taking one step forward and one step back.

I closed the door and just shook off the snow on my body when I heard my mother calling me softly from the kang in the inner room.

"Old Four! Old Four!"

"Eh!"

After scooping a ladle of cold water into the kettle and sitting on the stove, Chen Laosi walked into the house and saw his mother lying on the edge of the kang with an anxious look on her face.

"Old Four, come and have a look, Little Stone is badly burned!"

Upon hearing this, Chen Laosi immediately looked at his youngest son, who was lying motionless in the bed. He reached out and touched his forehead, which was hot.

"How did this happen?"

"I was cold. I like to kick off the quilt when I sleep, and it happened to snow outside..."

The old lady sighed and said, "See if there is any medicine left at home from last time. Make some for him."

"Can the medicine you take be the same as the one your child takes?"

Chen Laosi said unhappily, "Just cover it up and sweat it out first, and then see. If the fever doesn't go away after a good night's sleep, I'll go find a doctor."

"You can't burn it like this. If a child keeps burning it, it will easily damage his brain. Your eldest brother..."

"Okay, stop nagging me. Let me take a break. You don't know how far I ran to buy this little firewood."

"You still have to find another wife."

"I have elderly parents and young children to support, and my family is so poor that I don't even have anything. Which woman would be interested in me?"

"How can you find it if you don't look for it..."

When people reach middle age, they are under a lot of pressure.

Listening to his mother's nagging and looking at his young son lying in bed with a high fever, Chen Laosi took a deep breath, squatted at the door, and silently lit a cigarette.

dong dong dong-

The rapid knock on the door woke him up from the momentary relief brought by nicotine, and he quickly stood up and walked to the door.

As soon as I opened the door, a cold wind mixed with ice and snow blew in my face.

Chen Laosi subconsciously took a few steps back, not because of the wind and snow, but because of the person standing outside the door.

He was fully armed, dark-clad, carrying guns and cannons, and looked very scary at first glance.

"Sir?"

Chen Laosi was trembling, not knowing what to call.

"Are you Chen Laosi?"

"it's me."

"Don't be nervous, we are from the police station, and we came to find you to find out some information."

When Chen Laosi heard that it was someone from the police station, he felt relieved, but his heart soon grew tense again.

When a black-skinned man comes into the house, there is no reason for him to come.

"Sir, I am a good citizen..."

"I didn't say you weren't. Find a place to sit and I'll chat with you."

Wang Yunxiao put away his notebook and glanced at the furnishings in Chen Laosi's house.

It's a bit of an exaggeration to say that the house is bare, but there really isn't much.

But even so, being able to own a small courtyard and a mud house in the city and being able to afford food and firewood can be considered a middle-class family.

Youtiao and Xiaohulu followed in and went straight to the inner room.

Chen Laosi was horrified and reached out to stop him.

"Sir, it's no one else but my mother and children!"

"Yeah, it's okay, don't be scared."

Wang Yunxiao smelled the smell of cigarettes that had not yet dissipated in the room, took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, took out a cigarette and handed it over.

"Oh, sir, this won't happen! This won't happen!"

Chen Laosi quickly refused.

"The child has a high fever."

Little Gourd came out from the inner room and whispered, "Do you have any antipyretic medicine?"

"Have."

"Give one to the child."

"it is good."

Seeing that these superiors really had no intention of making things difficult for him and that they sounded young, Chen Laosi finally slowly relaxed.

"Do you know why we asked you to come here?"

"I don't know...I know."

Now that they had come to his door, Chen Laosi hesitated again and again and did not dare to lie.

"It was you who killed the monster at Nanshikou two days ago, right?"

"Yes……"

"Who did you learn this skill from? Why did you suddenly become so powerful?"

"I...I learned it by reading books."

Chen Laosi walked to the stove, took out a thread-bound book from the crack, and handed it to Wang Yunxiao respectfully: "Master, this is a book someone gave me, saying it is a martial arts secret book. I don't really understand it, and I don't know how, but I suddenly understood it..."

"Can you read?"

"I know a few, but not many."

"Who gave you the book?"

"He was a teacher. I met him by chance on the road. I helped him move some things, and he told me..."

Chen Laosi stole a glance at Wang Yunxiao, gritted his teeth and said, "Just tell me that this is a new magic skill compiled by the President, which was originally only promoted in the military. Seeing that I have a lot of strength and am... honest, let me try to practice it."

Wang Yunxiao nodded. This statement did sound correct. No wonder he believed it so easily.

The President does have this kind of criminal record.

She was in charge of Tianmen at that time, promoting the construction of new culture, and personally compiled many teaching materials, which were popularized among the people. There were special introductions to the world's human geography, new military training manuals, and even recipes and music scores.

Wang Yunxiao has in her hand a book called "Ten Thousand Mountains and Rivers", which is the outline of new-style martial arts compiled by her.

In addition, she also organized a group of people to translate Western books and compile new codes and new martial arts... The Twelve Dharmas System currently promoted by the government was led by her and compiled by elites from all parties.

Even those old officials from the previous dynasty who disliked the president the most would not use words like "coward", "violent woman" or "brave but foolish" to describe her when they cursed her behind her back.

They are truly cultured, and are no less capable than others in either civil or military affairs.

The people of Tianmen are no longer surprised by the fact that the president loves to write books.

"Let me take a look at your book... The Book of Qimen Dunjia. It sounds quite powerful. Have you ever considered the consequences of practicing this kind of unknown technique?"

Chen Laosi touched his head, not knowing how to answer.

"I didn't think I could really develop any skills..."

But I still couldn't help but practice.

Men are young until they die. Who can resist the temptation to change their fate?
"After you killed the monster, did you take the monster core?"

"Um……"

"have eaten?"

"I didn't eat it. I hid it. I read in a book that it can be used to make pills..."

At this point, Chen Laosi seemed to remember something, his face suddenly changed, he turned around and rummaged through the cabinet on the kang in the inner room, and asked loudly: "Mom! Where is the thing I brought back the day before yesterday?"

"What did you get back? I didn't see it!"

Chen Laosi suddenly turned around and looked at his youngest son who had a high fever.

"Sir! Sir! That thing is gone! I..."

"Eated by your son?"

"I...I don't know!"

He was at a loss for a moment and looked helpless.

Seeing how anxious he was, Xiao Hulu was about to take out the coins, but he saw Wang Yunxiao winking at him.

Not urgent.

Wang Yunxiao thought to himself, I want to see how far this play of yours can go.
