Chapter 79 Life Mentor, Old Village Chief

The next morning, Chen Ming still got up very early. He was slowly getting used to getting up early. He didn't need an alarm clock. He could hear the sound of roosters crowing early, and it was almost around five o'clock.

He got up and washed up briefly, then changed into a new winter clothes for the outer disciples. Chen Ming came to the altar not far away and drew out four incense sticks. The old village chief said that the old rule was "three gods and four ghosts". Three incense sticks were used to worship the gods, and four incense sticks were used to worship the dead.

"I used to have no conditions, but now the incense will not stop every day... Father, mother, I'm out!" Chen Ming bowed three times, and then inserted the incense into the incense burner.

The photo is a bit old, but it is still preserved. The photo shows two young men and women, about in their twenties. The old village chief said that it was taken at a party when the two moved to Xujia Village.

This photo has been fifteen years ago, and the people inside have not changed at all, but Chen Ming is already a thirteen-year-old child.

To be honest, because I have never met my parents at birth, nor have I really gotten along with them. Chen Ming actually has no feelings for these "parents" and no family affection.

But the old village chief said, "How could you come to this world without your parents? How could you survive and be discovered by us without them fighting each other?"

There are no scenes in novels where parents pretend to die and hide. The reality is that their bodies were dug out in the mudslide. At that time, the two hugged each other and used their bodies to create a small space for Chen Ming to live. Even so, when Chen Ming was dug out, his face turned a little purple, which was the result of severe hypoxia.

I don’t know if it’s because of this, his lung capacity has been much larger than that of ordinary people since he was a child.

Chen Ming was actually a little resistant to the old village chief's words at first. After all, he had to say hello in front of this photo every day before he could go out. But the old village chief insisted and even scolded him for the first time, and later he had this habit.

Now that I have grown up and have left the village, the old village chief can no longer see me, nor will he know whether he continues to maintain this habit. But it was a habit that I had been persisting since childhood, so every morning when Chen Ming got up, he was still used to saying hello to the photos and then going out.

Even some thoughts will be said in the photos when there is no one. It is amazing. After saying this, your mood will be much better, as if it is really complaining and complaining to your parents.

However, they could not respond to his complaints, and they would not be impatient or unhappy. They seemed to be two listeners who could not speak... Of course, what he needed at this time was actually the listener!

"How is it, what's going on?" Yang Xiong came to Chen Ming's ear while the other disciples were not paying attention and asked in a low voice.

In the past few days, he has probably known that he would buy the "Tunna Fa" inside. Of course, it also includes the fact that Chen Ming's medical book was not simple, and then he asked Wang Xi to identify it.

"The medical books have been identified, and the sect seems to be very interested in the sect... But obviously, the sect is more interested in the singling method and offers a very high price..." Chen Ming briefly explained what happened yesterday.

"Five million?!" Yang Xiong was almost shocked. Even if he was a city man, in this era, five million would be a huge sum!

"I haven't decided yet, maybe it's one million." Chen Ming hurriedly covered his mouth.

"That's a huge sum of money! You kid, you really have to treat you no matter how you sell it!" Yang Xiong also reacted, quickly lowered his voice, and then cursed with a smile.

"I have to call back and discuss with the old village chief. But treating a meal is definitely a treat. In those days, if you don't help the guardian, I might have a problem." Chen Ming smiled.

"You boy..." Yang Xiong shook his head when he heard this, "I just said that I really didn't do much effort in the process of creation."

"Didn't you also guess that there is no real internal force formed in my body. Is it because the tame internal force is transforming my body? I asked Mr. Peng, and after investigation, I found out that this is the case!" Chen Ming did not hide it.

"I just guess it casually..." Yang Xiong stuck out his tongue. He was just planning to comfort Chen Ming. Who knew that he had just guessed it right.

After completing the morning exercise, Chen Ming went to call after breakfast. The old village chief was used to getting up early or getting old. He woke up at five or six o'clock three or four years ago and couldn't sleep no matter how much.

"Hey..." Even so, it would be strange if someone calls someone early in the morning and they would be in a good mood.

"Grandpa Xu, it's me..." Chen Ming took the initiative to say.

"Oh yes... Chen Ming... Look at me, I always forget that you have changed your name..." Hearing Chen Ming's voice, the old village chief seemed very happy. His son was in the city and almost never called. If he would call, he would ask him for help. On the contrary, in recent days, Chen Ming would call from time to time. Maybe it was because of something, but he would talk to him. He liked this very much.

"Grandpa Xu, if you like it, you can just keep calling me Dog'er." Chen Ming said quickly.

"What's this? You're thirteen years old, you can't always call you... I just don't like the name Chen Ming very much. It's too sharp and not steady enough." The old village chief complained. This was the third time it was complaining during this period.

Chen Ming sometimes thought that maybe the old village chief had already given him a good name. As a result, he was taken first by others and was unhappy, so he always talked about this.

"I call you so early, there must be something wrong. Tell me, don't delay the main business!" Within a few greetings, the old village chief went straight to the main topic, which was really not too long-winded.

"Oh, okay..." Chen Ming stopped exchanging greetings, but just repeated the words of Wang Xi and Peng Ye yesterday.

"Good boy, how long have you been in the art? You actually created a martial arts secret book?!" Chen Ming did not say that it was an internal skill, for fear of causing trouble for the old village chief. So it was obvious that the old village chief had a little disbelief.

"Now I mainly want to ask you whether it is better to retain ownership or to obtain the right to use..." Chen Ming asked carefully, "The other is the medical book you gave me before..."

"You boy, you have never done a business." The old village chief thought for a moment, "In the past, there were merchants who came to collect agricultural products, and they collected them for one dollar per pound. When they arrived in the city, they had to buy at least five or six yuan, or even eight or ten yuan. If others were willing to buy them for five million, it means that its value was at least fifty million, or at least twenty million yuan!"

"Oh, then I'll only sell the right to use..." Chen Ming nodded, as if this was the reason.
