Possessing a page from the Book of Life and Death, I cannot see the past, but I can see the next life.
Instructor: "Martial arts aren't very suitable for you. Why not listen to your p...
Confucius traveled around the six kingdoms and spread the legal principles he summarized throughout the world. He became the founder of Confucianism and was called a sage.
I thought that with my knowledge that far exceeded the most practical, I could not only not become Confucius, but at least I could change my own environment and the current situation.
It turns out I overestimated myself.
Confucius not only had concepts and ideas that were far ahead of his time.
During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, he was able to travel throughout the six kingdoms and spread his ideas among bandits, looters, and rebel armies.
That is the force that makes people stop and listen to his reasoning.
Before you convince others with reason, you must make sure they can hear you reason.
The purpose of learning literature is to be able to reason calmly, while the purpose of learning martial arts is to make people sit down and listen to you calmly.
Unfortunately, I understood this truth too late.
This passage was filled with a strong sense of regret. Zhang Mingtu frowned as he read it. The writing style and memories were very similar to his own style.
It made him feel sad just by looking at it.
I think I will suffer a great loss in this matter in the future.
"By force?"
Secretly keeping this key point in mind, Zhang Mingtu continued reading.
This world is completely different from the world I live in.
The foundation is different!
There is nothing wrong with my idea of keeping a low profile and changing myself with the advanced knowledge from the previous life, and even radiating to Jianyi County and Longxing Prefecture.
But in practice, too many mistakes are made.
Plans can never keep up with changes.
I still have a martial arts dream in my heart, but the dream was eventually shattered.
The gap between people is so big that it is unimaginable. It was only in the second month of practicing Mangniu Daliquan that I was able to get started, master various force-generating techniques, and understand the key points of Yi Jin.
The top figures among their peers have already completed the muscle-strengthening process, and have reached the bone-strengthening stage, and even have a certain understanding of marrow-strengthening.
The coaches all praised him highly, and my practice progress was not the worst among my peers, but it was also in the middle to lower level, so I was considered average.
It’s not that I’m not suitable for martial arts training, but my coach recommended that I follow my parents’ arrangements.
Well, the coach also thinks I am more suitable to open a restaurant.
But I feel like he probably thinks I won't be able to make further progress in martial arts.
I was unwilling to give up, but after suffering so much in society, I let reason prevail and chose to go home and inherit the family business.
The restaurant is open.
Unexpectedly, it went smoothly. I was able to distill strong liquor using the distillation method.
The strong and mellow liquor was welcomed by the entire Jianyi.
My parents were also very happy.
Then I encountered great difficulties.
A group of ruffians drank and ate meat in the restaurant every day, but they were unwilling to pay the bill.
In the novels I have read, such minions were easily dealt with by the protagonist, but this group of people tortured me to death.
They shouted and made noise in the restaurant every day, which affected the restaurant's business at one point.
Until the escort father came back.
He easily beat up the leading thug, and then the next day he treated a familiar escort to a big meal at a restaurant - for free.
This works very well.
After that, the restaurant was no longer harassed by thugs. Later, I heard from my father that there seemed to be more important people standing behind these thugs.
But my father did not discuss this with me in detail.
I know that it is because my fighting skills are too low and my father does not want me to get too involved in the affairs of the underworld.
After this round of setbacks, the restaurant's business became more prosperous.
Feeling that the world was getting tough, I also made some changes.
Having had the last experience, I deeply understand that although there is a thread of relationship between the escort agency and the restaurant, it is okay to do it once or twice, but if it happens too many times, the relationship will eventually be cut off.
I would like to further strengthen my relationship with the escort agency.
But there was no other way until one day a one-armed old man was found basking in the sun in the escort agency.
…
The restaurant accepted many disabled escorts from the escort agency who were willing to work in the restaurant, and their families could also come to work in the restaurant.
This is a correct move.
The restaurant is completely integrated into the escort agency and Jianyi.
I also dare to innovate more boldly and replicate the delicacies in my memories of the previous life.
I brewed beer, made skewers, and improved hot pot...
Branches of the restaurant opened one after another, and there were even strong and skilled escorts in the escort agency who were willing to come to the restaurant to help. The profits generated by the restaurant were no less than those of the escort service, and were even more than those of the escort service.
The connection between the escort agency and the restaurant became closer and closer. I thought I would gradually reach the peak of my life, but I ended up in a trough.
I've been kidnapped!
This was a premeditated incident.
I didn't expect it, but I think the escort agency had anticipated it. The fact that young and strong escorts came to work in the restaurant is proof of this.
In this world, fists are the only way.
But this time, the escort agency's fist was not strong enough.
I thought I was strong, I thought I could say nothing, but it turned out that I was not as strong as I thought.
After being tortured, I realized that I couldn't be as proud and upright as my predecessors in history. I just wanted to die early.
I shamelessly explained the key to distillation, the beer brewing method, and the recipes for various skewers.
Then… I was stabbed in the chest and everything in front of my eyes gradually went dark.
At the end of his life, all he could hear was the sound of weapons falling to the ground and the panic of people falling to the ground.
Then a completely unexpected person rushed in.
The one-armed old man who had initially inspired me to recruit a disabled escort from the escort agency rushed into the basement covered in blood.
In the past, he would lazily bask in the sun, like a lazy old cat, and was almost unwilling to move.
Whenever someone passed by and greeted him, he would respond lazily, as if he had no bones.
But at this moment, his eyes were ferocious and murderous, like a tiger ready to devour people alive.
His palm flicked like a tiger's claw, and with one claw he pulled out the heart of a leader.
"Tiger Demon!"
Those were the last two words I heard in my life.
"I'm going to die just like that?"
As his gaze fell on the last word of this circle of life experience, a cold breath seemed to surge from the soles of his feet and rush straight to his head.
Zhang Tuming couldn't help but shiver. He checked his whole body but found that there was not much change.
I tried to push the stone lock in the yard that was used to build up my strength, but found that my strength didn't change much.
"Okay, okay, the meal is almost ready, come and eat." Mother Wang Yulan leaned out from the kitchen and saw that Zhang Mingtu was still practicing after returning home. A smile appeared on her face, but there was a hint of worry in her eyes.
"Hmm, what smells so good?"
"Your uncle Kili hunted a wild boar in the mountains and brought some to us. I cooked it with sauerkraut. You should eat more while you practice martial arts."
