Chapter 4 The Well Water Has Deteriorated



Zhang Xudong was exercising in the yard, but soon he was exhausted and out of breath.

This feeling of weakness was something he had never experienced before. He had done these exercises countless times, thinking they were simple, but after completing them, his legs and feet felt weak and his muscles ached.

He was sweating profusely, as if he had just been pulled out of the water. He lay on the ground in a completely undignified manner, his mouth wide open, gasping for air.

It felt like there was a fire burning in my lungs, and the sourness was so great that I never wanted to experience it again in my life.

I felt weak all over, my mouth dry. I knew I couldn't lie on the ground for too long, or I'd get sick. But I didn't even want to move a finger, let alone stand up. I figured the only option was to enter the space, where the temperature was constant.

Lying under the grape trellis, I controlled the well water to turn into a thin line and flow into my mouth. I gulped down a few big mouthfuls and felt alive again.

After lying there for about ten minutes, I felt a little stronger and wanted to take a shower and change my clothes. The smell on my body was so bad, and my whole body was sticky and uncomfortable.

As soon as I sat up, I felt a sharp, twisting pain in my stomach, and a powerful, sinking sensation. A cold sweat broke out, and my entire body was instantly filled with a surge of energy. I rushed to the bathroom faster than a rabbit. As soon as I pulled down my pants, before my butt even touched the toilet bowl, a torrent of fluids gushed out, cascading down my face.

I let out a long sigh, but when I tried to breathe in again, I couldn't. I didn't want to. The entire bathroom was filled with a smell ten times worse than rotten eggs. It was the kind of stench you'd suffocate to death without wanting to breathe again.

He wiped it briefly, pulled up his pants, pressed the flush button, and ran out. He took a few breaths to avoid suffocating himself.

"I've always drunk this well water without any problem. Why did it give me diarrhea this time? Is the water bad?

This shouldn't be the case. It looks clear and bright, and tastes a bit fragrant and sweet. It tastes even better than before. Was I just too thirsty today and this is an illusion? He walked into the bathroom, his mind wandering.

After taking off the stinky clothes, I saw that my whole body was covered with a thick layer of greasy dirt, which gave off a disgusting stench. I rubbed a large clump of dirt and instantly got goose bumps all over my body.

Fighting back my nausea, I hurriedly turned on the shower. I scrubbed and scrubbed for half an hour, using soap three times before I was completely clean. Only then did I feel refreshed and relaxed. I was alive again. It hadn't been easy.

Looking at myself in the mirror, though I'd lost some weight, my skin was as white as jade, with a faint glow. My muscles were fine, tight, and full of explosive power. My physical fitness was even better than before I'd traveled through time.

Looking at her fair and tender face, so smooth and tender, even better than other girls' skin. Why does it feel like I have great potential to be a pretty boy?

Thinking about it, all this happened after drinking the well water. It seems that the well water has indeed changed, and has become the legendary spiritual spring water that can remove impurities from the body and strengthen muscles and bones. I just don't know if it can cure diseases?

Coming to my senses, I noticed the bathroom light was still on, and the shower water seemed hot. I turned on the faucet on the sink, and water poured out. I twisted it left and right, and it had both hot and cold water. This was incredible. Where did all this water and electricity come from?

I didn't think too much about it. I had come here after more than fifty years. What couldn't happen?

After thinking about it, I put on my clothes and went to the kitchen to boil a pot of tap water.

In real life, there is no running water at home. We have to fetch water from the well in the center of the village, and wash clothes in the small river in front of the village.

If the tap water in the space was ordinary water, then I could be lazy and not have to go all the way to fetch water. I could just secretly put the tap water into the water tank.

I grabbed a glass of water and returned to my bedroom in the real world. I placed the glass on the desk, lit the kerosene lamp, and looked around. The house looked quite well-furnished: the bed, desk, chair, and wardrobe were all neatly arranged and sturdily built.

On the desk lay the original owner's textbooks and notebooks. In the drawer was a Forever brand fountain pen, a gift from the original owner's father when he passed the junior high school entrance exam. There was also a brand new Shanghai watch, a birthday gift from his father this year.

It seems that this cheap dad is quite reliable and has some skills. But his life is short.

I opened my closet and looked inside. It was completely packed. There were clothes for winter, summer, spring, and autumn. While not all of them were new, they weren't patched up, either.

In the original owner's memory, these clothes were all made by her grandmother. As for her biological mother, she even had to ask others to make her own clothes, so how could she care about herself and her sister?

Sitting on the chair in front of the desk, drinking boiled water, thinking about what happened today, I couldn't help but smile bitterly.

This first day of the start-up was really fulfilling. I have been busy since I opened my eyes.

Li Guizhi had beaten her own son to death. If she hadn't happened to travel through time, leaving behind this old lady and a little girl, how could they have survived the famine? They would have starved to death sooner or later.

By this calculation, Li Guizhi had single-handedly killed three people, a crime that was absolutely unforgivable. Severing ties with her today meant preventing her from coming back to suck my blood in the name of my biological mother. This person was the best of the best, so it was best to stay away from them.

After drinking the water, I blew out the oil lamp and sat on the bed to meditate. This was a daily ritual, a habit instilled in me by my grandfather since childhood. After he passed away, I fell into a bit of a slump, and my practice became sporadic. Now I feel a little guilty about him. I have to pick it up again and not slack off again.

I don't know if it's because my constitution is good, or if it's the effect of the well water, but after practicing the exercises once, I felt that the Qi in my body was flowing more smoothly and naturally than before, and gradually I began to feel the Qi.

In my previous life, I had already passed the Ming Jin stage and reached the early stages of Nei Jin. After traveling here, I suddenly became weak and powerless, which was a bit strange. Now, I can catch up quickly.

If I were in my current physical condition this morning, I would definitely not be killed by a rolling pin from an ordinary person.

Let alone being fucked to death, there was no way he could let her get close to him. Otherwise, it would be too embarrassing. If Grandpa knew about it, he would be so angry that he would jump out of his coffin and beat him up!

I'm going to teach my little sister ancient martial arts in the future. It's reassuring for a girl to have some self-protection skills. I just don't know if she likes Chinese medicine. If she does, I can teach her.

As he thought about it, Zhang Xudong gradually fell asleep. After all, he had been busy all day and was exhausted.
