Chapter 6 Belief
Chapter 6 Belief "Oh, mom and dad, just leave me alone. You see, the weather outside is so nice, it would be nice for the two of you to go for a walk outside. The parks in the city and the reservoirs on the outskirts of the city are sure to be crowded today. Too much, you go out to get some air, I run outside every day, I have had enough of playing, I will watch the shop at home today, take a break by the way, and train this and that in school every day, but I am tired of your son damn!"
After lunch, Zhang Tie cleaned up the house diligently, and then pushed his parents out of the house. His father worked six days a week, and he was in the workshop of the factory every day. His breath was full of dust. Worse, every day guarding the rice brewing shop at home, in such a small space, turning around is in the way, so every weekend, Zhang Tie, who doesn't want his parents to feel that life is too gloomy, always thinks A way to "drive out" my parents to get some fresh air. As for himself, today he is at home helping to look after the shop.
Seeing that their son is well-behaved and sensible, the parents are naturally happy, but when they left, the mother still told Zhang Tie uneasy, "Remember not to raise the price of rice brewing first, and when you meet regular customers, first put the rice and Tell people about the price increase of ingredients and tell them that if the price of our purchases can’t come down next week, the rice brew in our store will be adjusted up. They are all regular customers. Don’t let people think that we Family greed offends people!"
"I know, mom, you've said it more than thirty times. Am I so ignorant?" Zhang Tie exclaimed aggrievedly. It hurts self-esteem for a child to chatter like an imbecile.
"There are more than 30 times, at most five times!" My mother glared at Zhang Tie in feigned anger, trying to pull Zhang Tie's ears, but Zhang Tie quickly slid to avoid it, and then made a gesture to his mother. With a grimace, he ran to the rice brewing shop and yelled loudly, "The freshly baked rice brewing from the Zhang family is fragrant, sweet and delicious. Men eat it to be strong, and women eat it to look beautiful. Don't bother passing by." If you miss it, a bowl of six coppers is a big deal..."
"This kid..." Dad smiled and shook his head.
...
Seeing his parents holding hands and disappearing down the street, Zhang Tie rubbed his chin with one hand, and it took him a long time to withdraw his weird gaze from the two of them. For some reason, Dad My mother has been married for decades, but every time they go out together, the way they naturally hold hands makes Zhang Tie feel that they are not a couple who have been married for many years, but a couple who are in love Just like the young people in my life, it always gives people an indescribable weird feeling.
Is this love? Zhang Tie doesn't know, to be honest, his life experience is not enough for him to have enough feelings and understanding about it. But looking at the appearance of his father and mother gave him a strange sense of happiness in his heart.
As soon as his parents left, Zhang Tie sat bored in the rice brewing shop, holding a dust whisk, and flicking away flies from time to time. Miniang has a sweet smell, which is the most attractive to flies, especially when the weather is hot. In a few months, if it comes to summer, bamboo curtains will have to be hung outside the facade of this Miniang shop To get rid of these annoying guys who are always buzzing in your ears. But as soon as the bamboo curtains are hung to cover the carefully prepared displays on the shop counters, the business in the small shop will drop a bit, and it happens every year without exception.
It was afternoon, and the sun was shining brightly on the street, and the birds that had been silent for a winter on the sycamore tree seemed to have come out of their nests one by one, jumping up and singing happily, and the mottled sycamore leaves filled the market. Mottled spots of light and shade are cast on the breath-taking streets.
Outside the rice brewing shop of the Zhang family, there is already a sign written by my father last night, "Due to the recent increase in the price of food and raw materials, our shop is expected to increase the price next week. Please understand..."
My lovely dad, if it were Tang De, he would definitely increase the price of rice on the first day of the increase,
It won't be as long as a week.
I sat in the store for half an hour, did a few small businesses, sold seven or eight bowls of rice stuffed rice, put the scattered copper coins in the drawer, and put the rice stuffed rice bowls that others had eaten Soaking the spoon and the spoon in the sink, watching the rising sun and the weaker hand shaking the whisk, Zhang Tie couldn't help but feel bored. Chasing flies here, who can stand it? But the more bored he felt, the more Zhang Tie admired his mother. After sitting for a while, he became bored, and his mother had been sitting here for twenty years.
When people are bored, they will always find something to do for themselves. What Zhang Tie finds for himself when he is bored is to practice "Pearl Mind Calculus". This "Pearl Mind Calculation" has many realms. As Zhang Tie practiced last night, with his eyes closed, he spent a long time visualizing the abacus in his mind and then making calculations in his mind. The second level is that you don’t need to close your eyes, you can visualize the abacus in your mind almost in the blink of an eye, and then calculate the abacus in your mind. After all, this is a practical mental arithmetic skill. It takes hours to think about an abacus, and you still can't open your eyes, so what a fart. In the third stage, the abacus visualized in the mind already seems to exist, seems to exist, and seems to have nothing. When seeing any calculation problem, the answer will naturally pop up in my heart. This is the profound meaning of "Abacus Mind Calculation". Then, on this basis, visualize the abacus from three levels to twelve levels, or even more levels. Finally, you can even multitask, visualize several abacuses, or divide a multi-level abacus into three levels. In different areas, do many different calculation problems of addition, subtraction, multiplication and division on it at the same time, and you can get the answer in the blink of an eye. This is the highest state of "Abacus and Divine Arithmetic". Once practiced, that person can be called a humanoid supercomputer.
Zhang Tie actually doubts whether anyone can achieve the highest state of multitasking and becoming a humanoid computer written in the book "Abacus, Mind and Magic". , Zhang Tie was discouraged for a while, and there was a feeling that people were more angry than others. Where is the elementary school so awesome? In the end, Zhang Tie even suspected that what the old man who sold books said might be true-this book "Abacus, Mind and Magic" ", it is possible that it was really made from the ruins before the cataclysm. The era before the cataclysm was bizarre, and the things produced in the ruins were all kinds of strange things. The expensive crystals used for cultivation in this era were just inconspicuous decorations in that era. People still don't like it, maybe this strange book is really an extracurricular reading for primary school students in the era before the catastrophe?
No matter, let's talk about it after practicing, it seems that this "Abacus Mind Calculus" seems to be able to recover mental power by the way when practicing, Zhang Tie wants to confirm again to see if it really has this effect, but when he thinks of the "by the way" Two words, Zhang Tie couldn't help being confused for a while, and the abacus he had imagined in his mind collapsed in an instant...
The mental power that is so difficult to cultivate, and by the way...
This is really unacceptable.
Just when Zhang Tie's eyes were half-opened and half-closed, time and time again, sitting in the small shop and compressing the time to visualize the three-level abacus from more than ten minutes to five or six minutes, two things surprised Zhang Tie. People appeared in front of Zhang Tie.
Fatty Barry and Doug, the two guys are riding a bicycle, and the silly, black and thick Doug is riding a bicycle to sell coolies, sweating profusely and smiling happily, Barry, the cunning The fat man was sitting on the back of the bicycle. When Zhang Tie saw the two of them, Barry, the fat man who had been patrolling both sides of the street, also saw Zhang Tie.
"It's here, brake!" Fatty Barry yelled, and jumped off the back seat of the bicycle lightly, landing on both feet,
Doug, who was riding a bicycle with a happy face just now, suddenly yelled in horror after Barry got off the car, "Ah, brake, where is the brake, how to stop, ah... help..."
boom……
"Asshole, this is the new car that my dead daddy just bought for me!" Barry also cried out in distress.
Zhang Tie helplessly covered his forehead with his hands, and closed his eyes in pain...
Two minutes later, Doug and Barry, who were grinning and rubbing their buttocks, stood in front of Zhang Tie's small shop, watching the way Doug swallowed hard as he smelled the smell of rice brew and the look of disgust on Barry's face. Smiling, Zhang Tie cursed secretly, took out two sets of bowls and spoons from under the counter, then opened the clay pot, scooped a bowl for each of the two guys with a big spoon for scooping rice, and pushed them viciously in front of them.
The two guys immediately smiled, without saying a word of politeness, picked up the bowl, and Siri snorted three times to scrape and lick the bowl clean. Seeing Doug sticking out his tongue and circling in the bowl, Zhang Tie really wanted to put his hands on the bowl. The spoon on his head was slammed on his head, can you be more disgusting? No, the bowls this guy has eaten must be sterilized with boiling water.
Seeing the flattering smiles on the faces of the two guys after eating, Zhang Tie quickly took away their bowls and spoons, with a serious face, "I invited you just now, and now you have a bowl of six coppers. anything else?"
Doug immediately turned his attention to Barry for help, and the fat man patted his waist, and put a copper plate on the table, "It's delicious, let's have another bowl!"
Zhang Tie was not hypocritical, he swept the money into the drawer, and gave each of the two guys a bowl, and another bowl to eat. Under Doug's reluctant eyes, Zhang Tie took the two guys' bowls and spoons. In the basin. When Doug cast his eyes on Barry for help again, Barry automatically ignored his gaze and turned to talk to Zhang Tie.
"Cough...cough...what's this called, Mi Niang?"
"To Mi Niang! What's the matter?"
"Hey, home visits are a good tradition in our airplane fraternity!" Barry laughed.
"Okay, hurry up and get down to business, I'm hundreds of thousands a second now..."
"Have you heard of the Red Scarf Bandit?"
Zhang Tie was a little surprised when he heard Barley mentioning the Red Scarf Pirates, "I've heard of it, what's the matter?"
Barry looked around, lowered his voice, and quietly repeated the news that Zhang Tie had heard from his brother, "I only found out last night, and I'm here to inform you today. People who know the news now probably don't know who they are." Not much, anyway, be careful these days, don't go out at night, don't go out of the city if you have nothing to do, the red scarf bandits are full of butchers who kill without batting an eye. Don't you Chinese have a saying that every time the city gate When there is a fire, there will always be a few unlucky fish in the moat, and I don't want anyone in our airplane fraternity to be that unlucky fish!"
"Is that why you came here today?"
"Of course, otherwise, do you think it's fun for me and Doug to come out under such a big sun? After I inform you, I will inform Chauvin and Kista later. Well, it won't affect you for a second. The business of hundreds of thousands of clocks..."
Looking at the fat man's face, Zhang Tie was slightly touched, "Thank you, brother!"
"Then treat us to another bowl!" Barry salivated
Zhang Tie stretched out his hand, twirled his fingers, and made a gesture that everyone knew.
"Ha... ha... let's go, there is another one!" Barry patted the back seat of the bicycle, urging Doug to get on the bike quickly, Doug pushed the bike and walked a few steps, then turned to look at Zhang Tie , hesitated to speak, "Barry said... learn to ride a bike so you can pick up girls!"
"Don't worry, I won't say anything, your cycling skills are awesome!" Zhang Tie gave a thumbs up.
Satisfied, Doug nodded, got on the bike again, and took Barry away...
Zhang Tie didn't expect the news about the Red Scarf Bandit to spread so fast, and it made people in Heiyan city panic in just two days...
Why do you think about these useless things, let's just practice my "Bacus and Mind" honestly, what kind of red scarf thief, does it have a copper coin relationship with a small person like myself? Zhang Tie laughed at himself.
In the evening, Mom and Dad came back and brought a news that the ban on Heiyan City began to become stricter. In the evening, it is already necessary to check the identity certificate when entering and leaving Heiyan City.
After dinner, Gregory, the magistrate of the area carrying a lantern, knocked on the door of Zhang’s house, and issued notices from door to door, each house was not allowed to stay with strangers, and any suspicious person should be reported immediately. After twelve o'clock tonight, Heiyan City will impose a curfew...
Less than half a day after Fatty Barry left, news of the Red Scarf Bandit finally spread throughout Heiyan City, and an uneasy atmosphere began to stir.
But none of this has anything to do with Zhang Tie. After dinner, as soon as the magistrate left, Zhang Tie returned to his hut after washing up, and entered the Black Iron Fort, where he cleaned up a bag of garbage left by cleaning the house and cooking in the kitchen. After throwing it into the pool of chaos, Zhang Tie clapped his hands, then opened the basic attribute panel of the Black Iron Fort, and looked at the latest attributes of the Black Iron Fort with satisfaction——

Let mom and dad go out to play, guard the shop for a day, and get 5 merit points, plus cleaning the house and cooking, a total of 8 merit points were mixed today, the potatoes continued to germinate, and the spiritual energy value increased by 1.1. Packing rubbish in exchange for 0.3 basic energy reserves, this is what I have gained today...
Look again at the Manjusawa Precious Tree of Karma and Predestined Fruits.
There are still 103 hours until the first fruit without leakage is ripe...
No sleepiness at all, Zhang Tie took out the crystal that had been exposed to the sun for a day, sat down cross-legged in the Black Iron Fort, and practiced the magic point of the shrine. Through the experience in the Black Iron Fort these days, he found that the Looking at the trajectory of the colorful mist like the palette in the Black Iron Fortress, it can inexplicably calm people's minds, and it is very easy to enter the state of cultivation...
It was the first time for Zhang Tie to cultivate the bright spot in the Black Iron Fortress, and he quickly entered the state. With the help of breathing, under the dual effects of crystal and spiritual power, the blue brilliance on Zhang Tie's shrine bright spot quickly disappeared. lights up...
Only continuous improvement of one's own strength is the greatest reliance for survival in this era, and there is no shortcut to improving strength except for down-to-earth hard work and hard work—this is the belief that Zhang Tie has followed in the past 15 years.
Even if you get the Castle of Black Iron...
