Cultivation starts from being a ghost

Chapter 7
Qin Hai, who was already taller than an ordinary adult, stuffed the shell into Qin Chuan's small hand, then pampered his head, "It's at Daddy's place, I'll keep it for you, but is it really edible?"

"It was said by the priest who passed by our house!"

If Qin Chuan's excuse is absurd on earth, even a fool would not believe it, but in this world, rumors of being enlightened and accepted as disciples by immortal masters are not uncommon, and many people have seen Feitian with their own eyes. Immortal cultivators who have escaped from the ground, so the two brothers nodded believing it was true, and what the immortal master suggested was naturally good things!

What Qin Chuan asked them to bring back was sea cucumbers. No one in this world has realized the value of this thing. Although the Qin family's family background is not bad, it is impossible to buy things like ginseng to nourish his body, so he just With the idea of ​​sea cucumber, as long as the body is well adjusted, the cultivation methods in memory can be implemented.

Qin Biao did not disappoint his youngest son, and brought half a fish basket full of sea cucumbers, "San Er, did the old god tell you how to eat this stuff, and let your mother make it for you later!"

"Father, sea cucumbers can be used for making soup or medicinal food. I'll go to the kitchen with mother later!" Qin Chuan attributed everything to the old god who couldn't be verified. Anyway, the family did not doubt that there was it.

In the evening, the family got together happily, and the parents discussed about the schooling of the youngest son. The next day, Qin Biao took a gift to find Old Master Wu, a famous cultural person in Qinjiawan.

Old Master Wu was a teacher to the county magistrate in the early years, but later he got tired of the officialdom and recommended his son-in-law to the county magistrate, and then became a teacher at the invitation of Qin Jiawan. Qin Biao himself also knew how to read with him. Great respect.

Old Mr. Wu was a little displeased at first, but because of the face of the Qin family, he reluctantly accepted Qin Chuan as a disciple. After a few days, he discovered that the Qin San idiot widely rumored by the villagers was simply a child prodigy. He can see through things at a glance, and can even draw inferences from one instance. If it wasn't for the fact that the little guy was illiterate, he even suspected that this kid had been in school for several years.

After discovering a talent, Mr. Wu, who originally planned to deal with it, immediately regarded Qin Chuan as his successor, and began to teach this closed disciple carefully.

Qin Chuan also secretly compared the civilization of this world with the earth. This world also has the words of sages and subtle words, but they have nothing to do with Confucius. There is still a big difference.

Out of the need for Taoism, Xu Guozhong dabbled in seal characters, big and small, and even oracle bone inscriptions. Thanks to these memories, it was not too difficult for Qin Chuan to learn those complicated characters.

While learning the culture of this world, I also took time to exercise. From the beginning of Tai Chi, Wu Qin Xi, to Taizu Changquan, Baguazhang, these things will naturally not be practiced in front of others, in case they make a fuss again!
Time flies, and it has been more than a year. Thanks to nutrition and continuous training, Qin Chuan's small body is getting stronger and stronger, but because of his tall body, he still looks thin from the outside. It didn't arouse everyone's suspicion.

Qin Biao found that his youngest son hadn't been sick for more than a year, and the eldest and second child in the family also had inexhaustible energy. He was more and more convinced of the old god's advice. As long as he went to sea, he would definitely bring back sea cucumbers and other seafood with high nutritional value. Tonic for the family.

Suddenly one day, when Qin Chuan came back from school, he found his mother and second brother in the courtyard. The atmosphere in the house was a little off. He just wanted to enter the house but was held back.

"Xiao Chuan, your father is talking to your uncle and the others, and he will enter the house later."

"Mom, what happened?"

"Well, I heard from your uncle that Wanghai City was breached by pirates!"

Qin Chuan was taken aback. It was common for pirates to harass the village. Since he could remember, Qinjiawan had been visited by pirates many times, but he had never heard of pirates daring to touch a city garrisoned by officials and troops. It seems that these pirates The bandits are not small, this place is only a hundred miles away from Wanghai City, and it is also a famous land of fish and rice nearby. If the pirates return to loot along the way, Qinjiawan's strength of less than [-] townspeople will definitely not be able to resist it. So he understood the seriousness of the problem.

The adults in the house discussed it until dark before leaving. During dinner, Qin Biao kept frowning. Qin Chuan asked the tall and burly Qin Hai in a low voice: "Brother, how did you discuss it? Can you talk to me?" Tell me?"

Qin Hai knew that although his little brother was young, he had a very righteous mind since he became enlightened. "Uncle, what he means is that if the pirates pass through the border, let the people take shelter for a while. After all, even a thousand officers and soldiers in Wanghai City can't defend the city!"

"There are more than [-] people in Qinjiawan, old and young, women and children. Wouldn't it be more troublesome if they chased them?"

"Yeah, first of all, we are not sure whether the pirates will pass by here, and secondly, if we stay where we are, we can still fight with the advantage of the location, but if we withdraw and are hunted down by the pirates, the situation will be even worse. "

Qin Chuan held his head, which was one size larger than ordinary children, and murmured: "Then only a red heart is needed, and both hands are ready!"

Qin Biao, who had been listening to the conversation between the two brothers, came to his senses, "Xiao Chuan, why are you preparing with both hands?"

"Naturally, is it defending or withdrawing?"

"Nonsense!" Qin Biao glared at his youngest son.

Qin Chuan suddenly smiled slyly, "Father, you said that the pirates are going to retreat to the island, should they swim back or go back by boat?"

"Snapped!"

"Father, why did you hit me?"

"Stinky boy, that pirate's lair is in Mad Sha Island, about two thousand miles away from the land, can they swim back..." Qin Biao's eyes suddenly lit up, "Well, you mean?"

"Father, you are so smart. You can judge the direction of the other party through the pirate's ships. If those ships are approaching the fishing port of Qinjiawan, then we can withdraw in the opposite direction now. If the other party's ships are still parked, At most, there will only be a small group of pirates attacking, and they will not stay longer, after all, Wanghai City is broken, and the officers and soldiers will not let it go."

Qin Biao pondered for a while, then raised his head and glanced at his youngest son, whose face resembled his own. No matter how he looked, he didn't look very shrewd. Could it be that fever really turned Qin San's idiot into Qin San's evildoer?

The mother encouraged her to put a fat shrimp into the bowl of her youngest son, with indescribable pride in her expression. The brothers Qin Hai and Qin Yang looked at each other, then sighed and went to cook the rice by themselves, Qin Biaofan I stopped eating, told my wife, and went out directly.

After dinner, the two older brothers helped his mother pack up valuables and were ready to leave at any time. Qin Chuan took out a thick booklet from under the bed. This booklet was written by himself. It was a habit he developed when he was a secretary in his previous life to record everything he thought was important.

Soon, I turned to one of the pages, and the title was gunpowder. Although Qin Chuan worked as a secretary in his previous life, he majored in chemical engineering when he was in college, so making gunpowder was just a child's science.

For him in this life, being loved by his parents, protected by his elder brother, and having no worries about food and clothing, this is happiness. He doesn't want to lose all of this, so if someone dares to take it all, he doesn't mind letting gunpowder, a big killer, in this world. The world comes early.

The next day, judging from the inquired news, it was mixed. After the pirates looted Wanghai City, they began to break up into pieces in order to avoid being rounded up by the officers and soldiers. The good news is that Qinjiawan will not encounter large-scale pirates, and the worry is that A band of about 200 pirates looted all the way, and the target was Qinjiawan.

Lord Lizheng of Qinjiawan, Qin Chuan's uncle, Qin Long, learned the exact news, and immediately ordered most of the old and weak women and children to move into the earthen fortress. Let people drive the fishing boats away from the fishing port to prevent pirates from seizing the boats.

The earth fortress was built on a small hill, and the earth and rocks behind the hill were emptied to form a cliff five or six feet high, and trenches two feet deep and three feet wide were dug on both sides. If there were not many pirates, The only choice is to attack from the front, and the earth castle itself is two feet high, and there is only one iron-clad gate for people to enter and exit. It can be said that it is easy to defend and difficult to attack. Earth forts are not only available in Qinjiawan, but also in many large towns.

Qin Chuan also entered the earthen fortress. The yard the size of a football field was surrounded by earth walls two feet high and five feet thick. The place where martial arts are compared is the place where people temporarily shelter when pirates attack.

After touching the wall, the soil clods fell off automatically. This kind of wall is often exposed to rain and sun, so it is estimated that it does not have much defensive power. Qin Chuan thought twice, but still did not dare to take risks, and decided to get out the secret weapon.
