The world begins with refining skills

Chapter 8 Hunting
"I said, you want it," Mu Sheng repeated word by word.

This time Li Suhua heard it clearly, and her face was full of surprise and confusion, and her words were a little incoherent: "Daughter-in-law? You are dating someone. When did this happen?"

"Yes, Mom, I have a partner."

How can something as big as having a partner be as simple as having a hemorrhoid in your mouth?

Li Suhua couldn't help but slap Mu Sheng in the face: "How come you, kid, did such a big thing without saying anything?"

"Tell me quickly, when did this happen? Who is the girl from? What do her family members do?" A series of questions popped out of Li Suhua's mouth. She had too many questions.

The previous second she was thinking about going to chat with old sisters after dinner, and the next second a daughter-in-law suddenly appeared.

This surprise came too suddenly!

"This story starts from the time when that unfilial daughter Zhou Rong ran away." Mu Sheng's opening words caused Li Suhua to roll her eyes.

Over the past year or so, whenever she showed that she missed her daughter, her youngest son would scold Zhou Rong, which made her a little suspicious now.

Fortunately, she is more concerned about her daughter-in-law now and has no mood to argue with her youngest son.

Through Mu Sheng's artistically processed description, the image of a girl who is gentle on the outside but strong on the inside, simple, kind, virtuous and gentle soon emerged in Li Suhua's mind.

Li Suhua was very satisfied with the character of her daughter-in-law as described by Mu Sheng, but she was still a little worried about the situation of the Zheng family: "Bingkun, other mothers are very satisfied, but this one, the old and the young..."

It’s not that she disliked Zheng’s mother and Xiao Guangming, but she was afraid that her youngest son would be dragged down and have a hard life.

Mu Sheng also understood what Zhou's mother was worried about: "Mom, I know what you are worried about.
But as the old saying goes, one should marry a virtuous wife. If you marry someone with a bad temper and bad character, who makes the house a mess every day, what’s the use of having a good family condition?
Aunt Zheng was able to raise two adopted children to this age, do you think the daughter she raised would have bad character?"

"That definitely won't happen," Li Suhua blurted out. She also admired what Zheng's mother did.

“As for the matter between Aunt Zheng and Guangming, Aunt Zheng is not young anymore. She can’t be a burden for many years, and she is not that kind of person.

Although Guangming has poor eyesight, he can take care of himself. At most, it's just a matter of adding a pair of chopsticks to the house. Given the situation at home, can you still be reluctant to give up this meal, Mom?"

"That's not possible," Li Suhua quickly stated. Although she was frugal, she was not stingy.

"That's it, what else do you have?"

Li Suhua was convinced by Mu Sheng's reasoning, and it seemed that there was really nothing to worry about.

At night, when Mu Sheng had fallen asleep, Li Suhua was still tossing and turning on the kang, unable to sleep. She still needed some time to digest this surprise.

The next day, Mu Sheng brought Zheng Juan home to meet Li Suhua, and the next day Li Suhua went to Guangzipian to visit the Zheng family.

As time went by, the relationship between the two families became better and better.

The panel in Mu Sheng's mind was also refining the throwing skills step by step, and everything was getting better and better.

In the winter of 1972, the first snow came as early as in previous years.

As soon as October began, the whole Jichun was covered with white snow.

Outside the suburbs, deep in the mountains and forests, close to the depths of the forest.

Mu Sheng was wearing a military coat, a felt hat, and a scarf on his face, wrapping himself tightly with only a pair of eyes showing.

I saw him holding a homemade javelin in his hand, groping forward carefully in the woods.

It has been 15 months since I started refining the throwing skill, and I finally completed it a few days ago.

Host: Mu Sheng

Refining progress: Comprehensive martial arts 3%
Refining completed: Eight-section Brocade (the Qi of the Nutrients and Guardians); Flying Throw (breaking through the air)

World: The human world
Breaking the Air: Your projectiles can break through the air more easily, making less noise, faster, and with greater penetration.

Whoosh~~Woo~~ Whoosh~~Woo~
'The wind is blowing.'

Mu Sheng frowned.

The thick layer of snow absorbs sound waves, and with the sound of the wind, you can hear the movements around you even more clearly.

The difficulty in finding prey is secondary; the most important thing is the inability to detect approaching danger in time.

Thinking of this, Mu Sheng couldn't help but feel like backing off. He was indeed a bit reckless today.

After refining his new skill, he couldn't wait to try out the power of the flying throw, so he walked a little deeper into the forest today.

In the previous few hunting trips, Mu Sheng had at most hunted pheasants or something on the outskirts, and had never gone so deep.

The effect of [Breaking the Air] made him a little inflated, and he lost his usual vigilance.

Now I suddenly realize that I am just a fragile shooter with high attack and low defense. If I really encounter a pack of wolves or wild beasts, I will be killed if I am not careful.

"No, a gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall. Retreat!"

As soon as this thought came to his mind, Mu Sheng immediately turned around and walked back without hesitation.

About an hour later, Mu Sheng could already see the edge of the forest. He was basically safe here. Wolves and wild beasts generally wouldn't come to such a remote place.

After getting down to safety, Mu Sheng began to reflect on himself: "I was too arrogant. I forgot my last name after I had some martial arts skills. This is not okay."

"You are not an ancestor yet, and you still have to eat beef. Don't be so reckless next time!"

At this moment, a colorful Songhua chicken appeared in Mu Sheng's sight.

"Go away!"

The javelin in Mu Sheng's hand flew out in an instant, like a flash of lightning across the sky, and accurately hit the little head of the Songhua chicken.

With a snap, the chicken's head exploded and it died a miserable death.

"Hiss, so powerful? Refining panel yyds!"

Mu Sheng was checking the death of the Songhua Chicken with excitement, and was very satisfied with the effect of [Breaking the Air].

Not only is the attack silent, but without the resistance of air the speed and power are also increased.

After a simple processing, Mu Sheng took out the 28-bar bicycle from the space, put the pheasant into the bag on the back seat, got on the bicycle and drove away.

Come back home!

Guang character piece, Zhou family.

Compared to more than a year ago, Guangzi Pian is still the same Guangzi Pian, but the Zhou family has grown from two people to three.

Ever since the two families started interacting and the elders on both sides had no objections, Mu Sheng and Zheng Juan's marriage was soon put on the agenda.

The original plan was for the two to get the marriage certificate and hold the wedding when Zhou Zhigang returned from vacation, but Mu Sheng knew that Zhou Zhigang would go to Guizhou to find Zhou Rong during this vacation.

So he wrote a letter in advance to inquire, and it turned out that the unfilial daughter was more important than the unfavored younger son.

It would probably take another three years for Zhou Zhigang to have time. Mu Sheng was willing but Li Suhua was not, so they went to get a marriage certificate half a year ago.

Mu Sheng’s energy of time travel increased significantly as a result.

"Mom, Juan'er, look what I brought back?" Mu Sheng pushed the door open and walked into the house, picked up the pheasant in his hand and showed it to Li Suhua and Zheng Juan.

"Songhua chicken!" Zheng Juan said in surprise. Mu Sheng had brought it back several times before, and it tasted delicious.

"Kun'er, where did you get this?" Li Suhua was a little curious. Recently, her son always brought back various kinds of meat.

"It was the same hunter from before. Didn't the commune organize them to hunt wolves a few days ago? They caught this on the way." Mu Sheng explained, "Luckily I went there early and managed to grab one."

Hunting is a relatively dangerous activity after all. In order to avoid worrying Li Suhua and Zheng Juan, and to explain his high level of hunting skills, Mu Sheng told others that he bought the items from an old hunter in the countryside.

"It just so happens that you haven't cooked yet, so just stew the chicken and eat it today."

"This chicken is so fat." Li Suhua pinched it, feeling a little reluctant: "Save it for the New Year. It would be a pity to eat it now."

"Why save any for the New Year? I'll make it today. It's just the right thing for me to replenish my body. Don't worry about the meat for the New Year. I'll find a way." Mu Sheng refused.

"What else do you need to supplement? You have only grown taller in the past two years. Juan'er needs some supplement so that you two can have a big fat boy soon." Li Suhua is now thinking about having a grandson in her arms as soon as possible.

"Also, when it's ready, send some to Taiping Hutong for Guangming and my mother-in-law to try."

"Thank you, Mom." When Zheng Juan heard that her mother-in-law was still thinking about her mother and Guangming, she hurriedly hugged Li Suhua and expressed her gratitude.

"Okay, Mom, you are such a sensible and good relative."

Mu Sheng followed up with a lot of flattery, which made Li Suhua happily go to cook.

By the time Mu Sheng finished delivering the chicken and was rushing back from Taiping Hutong, night had already begun to fall.

The winter sun is always more stingy.

He rode the bicycle carefully, avoiding all places where hidden ice might exist. When he was almost at the alley, Mu Sheng saw a familiar figure.

It’s Tu Zhiqiang.

"Brother Qiangzi, why are you still going out so late?"

"Ah, it's Bingkun. He made an appointment with his friends to go to his house for a drink."

"."

After saying hello, the two separated.

After entering the alley, Mu Sheng did not rush home. He stopped the car and looked back, watching Tu Zhiqiang and the other two people reuniting together.

Water flows by itself, Luo Shibin.

Mu Sheng stared at the three people expressionlessly, as if he had discovered a few plump Songhua chickens in the forest.
