Chapter 29 Fluttering Wings

Chapter 29 Fluttering Wings
August 28th is the last day left until the re-examination.

Chen Chuan did not go to the boxing house for the past two days, but stayed at home to prepare for the upcoming re-examination. When he woke up in the morning, he practiced the big free-hand fighting over and over again in the yard.

His movements were smooth and powerful, with appropriate movements and stillness, making the originally highly aggressive free-hand techniques quite beautiful.

Yu Wan came out wearing an apron, watching him boxing with a smile. Even though she didn't understand, she felt that the power and rhythm conveyed by Chen Chuan's moves made her feel very comfortable.

She seemed to see a figure on Chen Chuan's body, who was also punching in the yard like now, and couldn't help muttering: "Second sister..."

After Chen Chuan had beaten her several times, he suddenly smelled a fragrance. He stopped beating her and said, "Auntie, are you making chicken soup?"

Yu Wan was a little surprised. It had only been stewing for a short time. She smiled and said, "You have a keen nose, just like my second sister. You have a retest tomorrow, so I'll make you some chicken soup to nourish you."

To be honest, a bowl of chicken soup can't really replenish Chen Chuan's training, but this is Yu Wan's good intention and concern for the younger generation. Besides, he has been eating dark meat pumpkin rice and nutritional paste every day these days, and he has almost forgotten what normal meals taste like.

He was in a good mood and said, "Thank you, auntie. I've been eating out these days. I haven't tasted your cooking for a long time. I missed it."

Yu Wan was very happy to hear him say that. "It will take a while to stew. You've been consuming a lot of energy practicing martial arts. Do you want to eat a few cakes first?"

Chen Chuan smiled and said, "I'm going to save some space for the chicken soup my aunt will make."

Yu Wan smiled and walked inside. "I'll go watch the stove and call you when it's ready."

Chen Chuan practiced alone for a while, and when he felt refreshed, he returned to the living room.

Because today is a holiday, the whole family is at home, including the young and energetic one. He has untied his belt and is reading a newspaper. Next to him is the radio, which is playing a Zhangshan tune.

Chen Chuan came into the room, picked up the thermos and poured water into the cup. Seeing that the tea on Nian Fuli's table was half empty, he took it and filled it up for him.

Nian Fuli looked up at Chen Chuan, then seemed to remember something, put down the newspaper and said, "Xiao Chuan, that matter has been resolved. There are still some connections, but don't worry about the exam. Don't ask too many questions. Your uncle will take care of everything for you."

Chen Chuan realized that this was referring to the time when he was attacked, and he said, "Thank you, uncle."

Nian Fuli asked again: "How is it, are you sure?"

Chen Chuanshuo said: "Mr. Yu is a good teacher. I have learned everything I should learn. This is also thanks to my uncle."

Nian Fuli saw the confidence in his eyes. He hummed, picked up the newspaper to cover his face and continued reading, but the toes of his crossed legs began to tremble.

Chen Chuan smiled, he took the cup of water back to the room, put it on the table and opened the window a little. It rained a little last night, and the air was still very fresh. The sounds of birds came in from outside.

After standing for a while, he turned around and took down the book "The Great Pioneering" from the bookshelf. This was his favorite book and he had been reading it for a long time.

The background of the great development was during the third national development period sixty years ago. At that time, Yangzhi City was just a small county town. It gradually developed because it became a logistics transfer hub for the development army.

However, this book is not mainly about the military, but from the perspective of the civilians of the three pioneering groups, describing some bizarre stories encountered during the pioneering process. It is more like a bizarre biography and adventure diary. The book describes the local customs and people in every place in great detail, and he read it with great interest.

In fact, Yangzhi City itself has all kinds of strange urban legends, such as the split-skull monster. Every time at the crime scene, the victim's skull is split open, and the brain inside is said to be gone.

Because the style is rather bizarre and the victims are not ordinary people, it has spread widely.

There are also legends about the disappearance of an entire village deep in Zhangshan, the phantom of Jiaoshan, the kite with a human face, etc. He asked Nian Fuli privately, and Nian Fuli scoffed at it, saying that the police station had investigated these incidents, and except for some things that were really hard to explain, most of them actually had traces of human intervention.

He also said that even if such a strange thing existed, it was nothing compared to muskets and cannons.

In the living room, before dinner time, the aroma of chicken soup wafted out. The two cousins ​​who were playing smelled it and immediately started shouting.

"It smells so good."

"I want to eat chicken. I want to eat chicken."

"That was for my cousin, not for you. You didn't eat it."

"I want to eat too, I want to eat too..."

"You don't have it, you just don't have it!"

Nian Fuli's head hurt from the noise of the two little guys. He put down the newspaper and said to the kitchen, "Yu Wan, let's stew another one."

"I want to eat this one, I want to eat this one..." "This child is not obedient at all..." Yu Wan ran out from the kitchen, grabbed Nian Mo's ears, and slapped his butt twice. Nian Mo started howling.

Chen Chuan heard the sound in the room and couldn't help but smile.

The family had lunch together at noon and in the evening.

Before dinner, Nian Fuli said to Chen Chuanchu: "Don't be too nervous tomorrow. When I, your uncle, went to the battlefield for the first time, I didn't know what fear was."

Yu Wan said, "Your uncle really didn't brag. He was quite brave at that time. But he always said afterward that if a bullet had gone a little further, it wouldn't have been a hole in his helmet, but he would have been unable to see anyone."

Nian Fuli stroked the stubble on his head and sighed, "Before I joined the army, I was able to feed my family and I didn't have to worry too much. Later, after I got married, I became less courageous. I always feel that I was too reckless when I was young. However, if I don't fight hard when I'm young, I will regret it when I'm old."

He looked at Chen Chuan and said, "Boy, take the test seriously. To put it bluntly, whether you drink wine and eat meat or eat bran and vegetables will all depend on tomorrow."

Chen Chuan smiled and said, "Uncle, aunt, I have confidence."

"Okay, no more words, let's eat. Eat more, eat more fully, and get a good rest, so you will be more energetic tomorrow." Having said that, Nian Fuli picked up the chopsticks, and the family started to eat.

After dinner, Chen Chuan took a walk outside. After returning to the room, he put the alarm clock on the table. He moved his fingers, and the second me instantly reappeared in his body. He began to count silently.

When he opened his eyes and looked at the second hand, two minutes had passed. This was the result of his hard work during this stage.

In a true life-and-death fight, the outcome would be decided in just a few seconds or even ten seconds, so if you were just dealing with a one-on-one fight, that would be enough.

In any case, he has done the best he could in the past three months, and now he just has to wait for tomorrow's test.

He checked again what he would need to bring tomorrow, then went back to read a book in a relaxed manner. When the clock struck ten, he turned off the lights and went to bed as usual, and soon fell into a deep sleep.

After a night, he got up at around five in the morning, full of energy. However, Yu Wan got up earlier than him, prepared breakfast for him, and told him not to be nervous.

Chen Chuan was not really that nervous, which was also due to his confidence in his own abilities.

Because the re-examination did not notify the specific test time, candidates were only required to arrive before 8 o'clock. However, in order to avoid appearing too rushed, he decided to arrive at school earlier.

After going out, he saw that the sky was blue and the sun had just risen, and there were not many people on the road.

He rode all the way, passed the city center square, and successfully turned onto the main road leading to Wuyi University Hall, but he saw security personnel maintaining order on both sides of the road, with short sticks and daggers on their waists.

These should be people sent by Wuyi University to maintain order. After all, with so many students gathered together, all of them young and energetic candidates with martial arts skills, problems could easily arise if proper arrangements are not made.

After riding for a while, he could already see the school gate, but a barrier rope had been set up on the open space in front of the gate. A security guard standing at the intersection came out and waved to him, indicating that he should park his bicycle in the designated place.

He got out of the bike and pushed it to the open space where several rows of cars were parked. After parking the bike, he walked in through the passage reserved by the barrier cable.

There were already many candidates who had arrived early and were queuing up in front of us. Candidates were required to verify their identities one by one. Those without student ID cards would not be allowed to enter the college. If they were damaged, forgotten, or lost, they would be stopped from entering without any explanation from you.

Guarding the gate were two college teachers and three assistant teachers, each of them had a serious expression. Coupled with the security guards patrolling back and forth, the atmosphere was very tense.

This time, Chen Chuan entered through the side door again. He checked the number and photo at the door, and after confirming that it was him, he checked his personal belongings. Except for drinking water, toilet paper, and things like towels, nothing else was allowed to be brought in. Finally, he had to sign in person before he was allowed to enter Wuyi University.

When they were queuing up to enter the school gate, a car drove over slowly. The teacher took the initiative to go up and asked a few questions. The students inside did not get out of the car, but just took out their student cards and gestured, and were immediately allowed to pass.

None of the students who entered the school from the side doors thought there was anything wrong. Instead, most of them looked at them with envy and longing.

At this time, a few birds chirping were heard overhead. Chen Chuan looked up and, with the help of the bright sunlight and the clear sky, he could see a few birds circling and flying high.

"Student, here is your student ID card."

Chen Chuan came back to his senses, said thank you, took it, put it away, tightened the bag on his shoulder, and walked through the gate of Wuyi University.
