Chapter 2 He Yushui Emptying the Urine Pot
"Is Xiaodie here?"
"Yes, I have always been here."
Who is Xiaodie? It’s a long story.
The small disc is the missing piece of the Jade Disc of Creation. The Jade Disc of Creation has always wanted to find the small disc and merge it with the small disc to achieve perfection.
Xiaodie already has his own intelligence, so he would never let the Jade Disc of Creation merge with him, so he has been hiding from place to place.
Later, he was enlightened by a saint who said that he could go to the Blue Star world to find a person with a chaotic soul, and solve this problem by combining the Tao.
Yes, Daozu can combine his body with Dao for the Jade Disc of Creation, so can we also combine Dao with our body? So, Xiaodie found Zhang Dongliang and bound himself to Zhang Dongliang, which was considered combining his body with Dao.
Xiaodie owes the saint a cause and effect.
This time the Blue Star world is in crisis, and the saint asks Xiao Die for help.
The saint's incarnation once worked as a librarian on Blue Star. He also left behind a scripture and passed down the Taoist tradition.
With the help of Xiaodie, Zhang Dongliang opened up a small world and then prepared the supplies.
When Zhang Dongliang traveled through time, he had already been preparing for several years, and even bought a lot of arms while traveling abroad.
Although Xiaodie said that after the small world grows, it can use the power of creation to replicate inanimate objects, there is no need to prepare so much, just a few samples will be enough.
But he has always remained true to his original aspiration and has been collecting tirelessly.
Until the moment before leaving, he angrily ran to South Korea to buy some cabbage, and then he set off contentedly. . . . .
After changing into the new body, Zhang Dongliang discovered that not only did he become younger, his physical fitness had greatly improved, and his appearance seemed to become more handsome as well.
In front of the mirror in the living room, Zhang Dongliang looked at himself in the mirror.
I won't talk about his star-shaped eyebrows and sharp eyes. He has the youthful vigor of young Jimmy Lin and the uprightness and generosity of young Leon Lai. As expected, he has always been the most handsome.
The height of 178cm is tall but not out of place in this era. The body is well-proportioned and slightly thin, which is in line with the characteristics of this era.
After admiring his own image, Zhang Dongliang looked at the full supply of supplies in the small world with his soul, and his heart was filled with a sense of security.
Taking a deep breath, Zhang Dongliang opened the door and walked out.
This world, here I come~~~
When I walked into the courtyard, I saw a thin man in his 40s standing outside the west wing.
He was wearing a cotton hat, a thick old cotton jacket, and a pair of glasses. It was the third uncle, Yan Bugui.
He was holding a long bamboo pole in one hand and putting something into a metal bucket at his feet with the other.
Zhang Dongliang walked closer and took a closer look. There was no white tape wrapped around the legs of the glasses. That's right, it's still too early for the plot to begin.
"Hey! Uncle, are you going fishing in this cold weather?" Zhang Dongliang greeted him.
Yan Bugui was stunned and turned around with some confusion.
In the past, Zhang Dongliang only went to school and studied at home, and rarely interacted with people in the hospital. This time, Yan Bugui was a little uncomfortable when he took the initiative to come up and say hello.
"Oh~oh, it's Dongliang.
It's Sunday now, so I'm free anyway. If I catch some fish, it can improve my life and I can just stretch my legs. Dongliang, have you finished your graduation exam?"
"I finished the exam. I just finished it yesterday."
"Then you will go to college next year. It should be easy to get into college with your grades."
"No, I'm going to work at the steel mill after the New Year. I've already made an agreement with Director Yang."
"That's impossible! Going to college is such a great thing, how can you not go?"
Yan Bugui considered himself a cultured person and had a deep obsession with going to university. Especially since he was in charge of the front yard and was the next-door neighbor, it was a matter of great honor.
"Hey, you know what happened to my family in the past two years. Now I really don't want to go to college. Besides, if I start working earlier, I can contribute to the country earlier."
"Well, Third Uncle, you all have taken great care and helped a lot with my father's funeral.
You see, after I get my diploma in a few days, the Chinese New Year will be coming soon. I would like to invite you all to sit together, is that okay with you? I will discuss the specific time with you all then. "
Seeing that Yan Bugui was still trying to persuade him, Zhang Dongliang quickly stopped him from talking.
"Okay then. How can you say that~~ ahem~~ what a pity~~~" Sure enough, upon hearing about eating, Yan Bugui's interest quickly shifted.
Watching Yan Bugui carrying the bucket out of the Chuihua Gate, Zhang Dongliang also smiled bitterly from the bottom of his heart. What he feared most in his life was this kind of persuasion that was always for your own good.
Before I could turn around, I saw a girl holding a urine pot walking in from the hanging flower door.
There is no other way, this is what it is like to live in a slum. You have to go to the public toilet outside to empty the urine pot early in the morning and queue up to defecate. If you go late, the queue is still very long.
The girl was not short, but very thin. Even through her bulky cotton jacket, one could feel the thinness of her body underneath.
The pale face and dry hair showed that the girl was severely malnourished.
"Rainwater, good morning."
"Oh~~ It's Dongliang brother, good morning to you too."
He Yushui was also born in 1942, so his birthday should be younger than Zhang Dongliang's, but the exact month is unclear.
Since we are of the same age, I am quite familiar with Zhang Dongliang.
He Yushui's father, He Daqing, fled with the White Widow to save the city in 51, and with an unreliable brother, it was lucky that he survived in the past few years.
I started school in 53. I will graduate from primary school at the end of this year and go to junior high school next spring.
After years of war and the founding of New China, children at that time generally started school late, especially girls. Yu Shui said that there were some in their 20s in her class.
Zhang Dongliang looked at the people in the courtyard with a gaming mentality, just like treating NPCs.
But looking at He Yushui, who was supposed to be a young girl, standing here thin and weak, looking so hungry that she was exhausted, my heart ached slightly and I felt that I had to do something.
"Brother Dongliang, do you have anything else to do?" He Yushui looked at Zhang Dongliang who was standing in front of her, her pale face already blushing with shame.
"Um~~Rainwater, can I ask you for a favor?"
Zhang Dongliang looked at Yu Shui holding the urinal in her hand and knew it was not the time to talk, so he hurriedly asked her.
"What are you busy with?"
"Can you come over and help me make breakfast? You see I can't cook and I'm hungry."
"Okay then, I'll wash up and come over later."
After the two of them agreed, Zhang Dongliang hurried home. He had to make some preparations in advance.
There was no more white flour in the flour jar, and only a little corn flour was left.
Corn flour is made by crushing corn kernels through a grinder. The kernels are coarse and the skin is not peeled, so it tastes bad and makes your throat hurt. However, it is not processed together with the corn cob as the online article says.
The reason why modern cornmeal tastes good is that the corn kernels are first removed from the root germ, the corn oil is extracted, and then the husk is removed and finely ground by a flour mill. The grains are very fine and naturally taste good.
