Siheyuan: Starting from a fitter

Chapter 7 Watches and Flea Markets

After a brief treatment, I had nothing to do, so I fell asleep.

When I got up in the morning, I remembered the absurdity of the night, quickly changed my underwear, lit the stove, and boiled water to wash my underwear.I was too embarrassed to hang it outside, so I just pulled up a stool and hung it next to the stove.

In fact, Taoism has a method of seclusion. It is believed that there is no record of it in jade slips or pamphlets, and there is no master to teach it, and it does not even understand the basic Taoist requirements.

"I don't know if it's caused by my youth or practicing martial arts. I have too much energy. Even a 40-year-old soul can't suppress the overflowing heat. No, I have to find something to do to cultivate my mind and nature."

After entering the secret realm, I used Zhou Tian according to my habits. Although the inner breath has not increased significantly, I feel that the inner breath runs more smoothly and is more resilient. With the sudden burst of inner breath, the meridians can be relaxed and relaxed freely, and the meridians will not be all over the body like in the past. pain.

After practicing for 3 months, the inner breath is the inner breath, and the fists and feet are the fists and kicks. They are incompatible with each other and ignore each other.With the deepening of practice, especially when practicing the five groups of movements such as Tiger Lift, Deer Arrival, Bear Luck, Ape Lift, and Bird Stretch, the inner breath gradually resonates. Now, the inner breath will arrive according to the five animal movements. The hands, shoulders, waist, legs, feet and other parts make various playing styles appear more calm, harmonious, harmonious and natural.When practicing movements such as tiger pouncing, deer running, bear swinging, ape picking, bird flying, etc., the inner breath runs quickly, allowing the body to make all kinds of incredible movements.

It’s getting closer and closer to the description of Wu Qin Xi’s general outline:
Body like a mast and feet like a boat

Stretch like a whip and move like a wave

Shenzang is as lucky as a ball
Hot and cold bombs

Facing the enemy is like swimming in water

The shot is like a hammer throwing away ashes

If he grabs me, I'll go first

Iron suddenly wedges itself into the spinal cord

Although I have not tested it specifically, I have secretly lifted 200 kilograms of workpieces in the workshop before, and it was easy. I feel that I can easily lift a few more pieces and lift them more than 1 meter off the ground with a slight jump.One time, I drank too late with my co-workers and the courtyard door was closed. I didn’t want to disturb the third uncle’s sleep. I walked to the wall of the backyard and jumped on the spot. I lightly put one hand on the wall and jumped over. When I landed, I naturally used Bird Flying and Dust Dust. No contact, no sound, I was shocked at that time. When I returned to the house, I immediately entered the secret realm, tossed and turned, and had a great time.

It has a greater effect on work. When using tools, it can be: stable, accurate, fast and micro.When getting along with people, it is very easy to feel the other person's micro-expressions, and you can faintly feel the other person's aura. Various emotions such as disgust, happiness, violence, joy, admiration, possession, etc. can all be felt in the aura.Moreover, each person's aura is different in size. Those with strong bodies are generally larger, but only about one meter in length. The largest ones are those of paranoid people, whose aura can be as large as a terrifying 3 meters away.

At first, Li Guocheng was always affected by these auras. Later, with the deepening of the practice, he gradually became able to feel the breeze blowing on his face and his heart as solid as a rock. Unexpectedly, his inner breath became more condensed and faster.

I sweated all over in the secret place, the heat seemed to have disappeared, and I was refreshed. I mixed the hot water in the kettle with cold water in the house, and after scrubbing my body, I planned to go to the department store to buy a watch. I just got a watch yesterday. ticket.

As soon as she went out, she met Yu Xiao'e walking out carrying a spittoon. Her hair was messy, her eyes were dark, and her face was full of exhaustion. She could clearly feel her resentment.

"Good morning, Xiao Li," Yu Xiao'e said with a cold face, saying hello as calmly as before and left.

"Sister-in-law, it's early for you." Li Guocheng didn't dare to provoke her, so he quickly walked out of the Moon Gate and walked towards the breakfast shop.

"Walking in such a hurry, you can't avoid me, huh", I didn't respond to my plan, but this morning it had the opposite effect, which aroused Lan Xiao'e's inner sense of victory and defeat.

As a side note, don't let your wife be a housewife, otherwise she will think nonsense and find something to do, and there won't be so many things to do.

On today's day off, I bought two big buns, a bowl of soy milk, and a big fried dough stick. I sat on the small breakfast table and ate slowly with pickles.In fact, this breakfast shop also has old BJ's traditional food, but I don't like soybean juice, sausage enema, fried liver, etc.

After eating breakfast, I walked to the department store, went up to the second floor and came to the watch counter. I was very familiar with it. My predecessor had been here many times, and I knew very well that there were only domestic Shanghai brands and Swiss Longines here. If you can't afford them, why don't you look down on them?

"Comrade, how can I buy a Shanghai brand watch?"

"Semi-steel 120, all-steel 160." After a while, a 40-year-old woman came over impatiently and said bluntly, seeming to blame Li Guocheng for interrupting their chat.

"Can I take a look?" Li Guocheng was used to it. As long as he didn't make a move, he would pretend he didn't see the other person's expression.

"Do you have a watch ticket?" He became even more impatient.

Li Guocheng took out his watch ticket and handed it to the salesperson. The salesperson impatiently took out two watches and placed them casually on the wooden board of the counter.

"Exquisite things, please handle them with care." It turns out that handling them with care is only for customers.

After feeling it for a while, I still like the all-steel one. I reached into my jacket pocket and pretended to take money. In fact, I took out 16 large unity sheets from the space, along with the watch, and handed them to the salesperson.The salesperson ignored it, lowered his head to write the ticket, clamped it with a clip, and sent it gently. The clip slid along the wire above his head to the checkout counter. The salesperson raised his head and nodded at the checkout area with his mouth, and stopped paying attention.It seems that I am not used to the current life, and I have even forgotten this common sense.

Li Guocheng took the money ticket and after checking out, he took the receipt to the watch counter, took the watch and put it directly on his wrist. The strap was a bit long. Although the salesperson was impatient, he was very professional. He adjusted it by pressing three times, five times and dividing by two. Watch strap.

I got the watch, but it's too early now, and I have nowhere to go. I left the department store and wandered along the street. I accidentally saw people coming and going. Everyone's expressions were positive and enthusiastic.Looking up at the building in front of me, I found that it was a standard Soviet four-story building, a library.

Stepping in, I found that I needed a letter of introduction to apply for a reading permit, so I had no choice but to leave.

As soon as he came to this era, he started training on fitter skills for half a year. He was in seclusion for nearly 4 months. As a result, Li Guocheng has not really integrated into this era. Although he has the memory of his predecessor, many habits have not truly become the instinct of the era. , it seems that we need more contact in the future and integrate as soon as possible.

After sorting out my thoughts, now that I need letters of introduction everywhere, I feel like I have nowhere to go but to go to the flea market.

The closest thing to here is the Houhai flea market. 20 minutes later, Li Guocheng entered the flea market. There were not many people, and there were people buying and selling.Most of the objects are in tatters and have basically lost their use value.

At this time, I passed by the furniture area and was attracted by a dilapidated cabinet next to me. One of the four legs was missing. It was only 1 meter high and 60 centimeters thick. There were two rows of small drawers on the front, 4 in each row, and one was pulled out. , it feels like it is used to store some tools or objects. It is larger than the traditional Chinese medicine drawer, but not as long as the traditional Chinese medicine drawer.

It was not long enough, and Li Guocheng suddenly realized that he tried to pull all the drawers just now. The top three rows of drawers felt that they did not reach the bottom when they were pushed in. The bottom row of drawers felt slightly bottomed when pushed in. There should be a mezzanine inside. , if Li Guocheng hadn't been sensitive, most people would have ignored it.

"Comrade, how can I buy this?" Li Guocheng politely called to the person in charge of the market.

"Here, please give me 2 yuan. The board is very thick and made of enough materials. Even if it is broken, it can be repaired."The person in charge warmly introduced.

"Okay, I just need a place to put tools. This one will be fine. You can make an invoice."

Based on his special feeling, Li Guocheng bought some pieces of wood removed from old furniture that felt dense.

Carrying the cabinets and wood, I came to a remote alley. With a thought, everything in my hand was sent to the secret realm.

Seeing that it was noon, I wandered over to the Bai Lao Si Sheep Soup Restaurant not far from my home, ordered a casserole and two steamed buns, and had a delicious meal.

I passed by the supply and marketing cooperative and bought two bottles of Chrysanthemum White. The wine tickets I had saved earlier were exhausted.

The journey was uneventful and we returned home.
