Chapter 3 Arrival and Settlement in Qingshan County



If that's the case, there's nothing to worry about. Gu Can thought as Gu Shiliang carried her to the back door. Ji Yiwan opened the door, and as it opened, a ragged, pale, and thin old couple appeared, falling down with the door. If she hadn't felt it, she wouldn't have believed that this was the old couple who had just left. The three of them looked at each other in silence, and it was Gu Shiliang who came to his senses first.

"Servant of calligraphy and painting," Gu Shiliang turned around and called his two servants.

"Master?" The two men stepped forward immediately.

"Hurry up and carry them in," Gu Shiliang said. The secretary hurried to call for help. During this time, the old man winked at Gu Can subtly. Okay, she knew it was definitely because of the old naughty boy's personality.

After a busy day of work and a doctor's visit, they were both stunned by hunger! Those old couple were such a worry. But after two bowls of porridge, they slowly regained consciousness. After a bath and a change of clothes, they looked their sage selves again.

"Wow." Little Gu Pan and Gu Hele exclaimed in surprise when they saw this magical transformation.

"My last name is Zhang, my wife's last name is Tang. We've been traveling around the world for a while now. You're quite good, kid. Go chop some firewood first, and I'll see what you've got." Old man Zhang was not polite at all. He addressed Gu Shiliang's problem directly.

"You old man, the master was kind enough to take you in, and you still dared to let the master chop wood."

"Shi Mo, don't be rude." Gu Shiliang said. Shi Mo was absolutely loyal, but he was a bit reckless and needed to be tempered. After Gu Shiliang finished speaking, Shi Mo found that he could not move.

"Hmph, rude." Old man Zhang snorted arrogantly, and the others were stunned by this acupoint-pressing move from a distance.

"Boy, I'll go right away." Gu Shiliang bowed slightly, shook his head at his child, then turned and walked towards the backyard.

"I'm not full yet. Go and cook me a bowl of noodles. I want you to cook it yourself." The old lady said to Ji Yiwan.

"Please wait a moment."

"Madam," Zhenzhu wanted to say something, but Ji Yiwan shook her head, and she fell silent. Cooking noodles was infinitely faster than chopping wood. So, not long after, Ji Yiwan heard the system prompt: "Complete! Cook a bowl of vegetarian noodles! Mission complete!" Reward: a noodle recipe book, a noodle practice space unlocked, proficiency level 1. "Host, please practice diligently and become a culinary god soon."

"The noodles are soft and mushy, taste bland, and look terrible." Before the old lady could say anything, the old man took a bite and gave a bad review.

"What kind of person is that? Our wife has never cooked before." Songxiang said angrily.

"All right, from now on, you'll learn from me," the old lady said. Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment. What's wrong with this old lady? Seeing this, the old lady went to the kitchen and cooked a bowl of noodles herself. It was plain, but it made people salivate. An hour later, Gu Shiliang's mission was also completed. The mission of chopping a load of firewood was completed, and the reward was a fine iron hatchet and a 1-point increase in physical fitness.

"Your strength is uneven, you're sweating like rain, you're panting like a dog, your health is too poor, you need more training." The old man floated down to the backyard, a scene that made the three little ones very envious. Everyone came to their senses and realized that this old couple must have some background. Their master and his wife must have hit the jackpot.

The two settled down at the Gu family's house. They followed the journey all the way to Qingshan County, Yingzhou. They encountered bandits along the way, but Grandma Tang, with a handful of medicinal powder, bound them all and handed them over to the authorities, receiving a reward. By the time the family of three crossed over, they were only a third of the way there.

After ten days of wandering, they arrived at Qingshan County. Naturally, officials were there to greet them. Yingzhou was a frontier region, vast and sparsely populated. Everyone was poor, and often harassed by barbarians. Consequently, the people were known for their tough character. Qingshan County governed 11 townships and 150 villages. The protagonist's family was exiled to Banshan Village in Lianhua Town.

The adults took care of everything. Gu Can was just a two-year-old baby at the time. She didn't know why the one- and two-year-old babies in novels were so capable. Anyway, all she did every day was eat, sleep, and sign in.

After more than ten days of signing in, she obtained the Earth-level Kung Fu "Hegemony Sword Technique", the Heaven-level "Talisman Collection", a piece of top-grade mutton-fat jade, and a piece of gold the size of an adult's fist.

A rosewood comb, a bottle of primary marrow cleansing pill, 100 kilograms of wild sweet potatoes, 100 kilograms of wild potatoes, 100 kilograms of soybeans, a book of sugar-making recipes, and a book of wine-making recipes.

I haven't signed in today and it seems like the whole family is busy.

"Nurse, go to the garden." After saying this, Gu Can was speechless. Fortunately, she was only two years old.

"Okay, let's go to the garden." The nanny carried Gu Can to the garden.

"Sign in." After arriving at the garden, Gu Can silently signed in in his heart.

"Qingshan County Yamen Garden has successfully signed in. Congratulations to the host for obtaining the god-level technique 'Hundred Butterflies Flying Through Flowers.'" As the system finished speaking, Gu Can wanted to raise an eyebrow to express her pride, but she was too young. But she was in a good mood.

There is still a year left, so she is not in a hurry. Maybe she will be able to master the emperor-level martial arts. She doesn't know how those who have started practicing since infancy do it. Anyway, her meridians and bones will not be fully grown until she is three years old, so she can start practicing. This is because she is well taken care of and has the low-level spiritual cow milk provided by the farm space. Otherwise, it is best for ordinary children to start learning martial arts at the age of five.

Because Gu Can was too young, she would probably only be able to sign in at the county government office for the next year. After Gu Shiliang arrived, he began to reorganize the government office and then ran around all day, observing the situation in Qingshan County and looking for places to try growing sweet potatoes, potatoes, and soybeans.
