And so, Aniu stayed with the Third Master.
She did not sell herself to the Zhou family, and her parents' funeral was also handled by the third master.
All encounters are so sudden.
Aniu felt like he was in a dream. It was not until the Third Master started a very harsh training program for him that he stopped thinking about what was wrong with him.
Every day before dawn, the Third Master would pull him out of his wound, make him carry sandbags, lift anvils, and do all kinds of things to strengthen him.
After a month, he started to follow the Third Master in slaughtering pigs and sheep, cutting the meat and removing the bones.
What we eat every day are pig bones, pig blood, mutton offal and other leftovers.
Incredibly, no matter how hard the training was, as long as he ate this kind of meat, his physical strength would be restored and his spirit would become very strong.
After doing this for half a year, he gradually became stronger and stronger.
Before, I had to grit my teeth to lift the table for a quarter of an hour, but now I can do it for two quarters of an hour.
After that, formally learn the iron shirt training method.
This method emphasizes both breathing and forging, and requires a special physique. Only by exercising while holding the Chen family's heirloom gem can one achieve results.
If one does not have a special physique, even if one holds this heirloom gem, it will be of no use at all.
Ah Niu also discovered that his aptitude seemed to far exceed San Ye's expectations. After each training session, he could not hide the shock on his face, wondering why Ah Niu had improved so quickly.
In order to repay the kindness of the Third Master, Ah Niu naturally worked hard to exercise.
He could see that although the Third Master was surprised, he was more happy.
Therefore, he concentrated on training and improving himself in order to give more rewards to the Third Master.
In the second year, he began to follow the third master to Zhou's ranch to buy pigs and sheep. There, he saw the grandeur of Zhou's ranch and the many domestication techniques. He met several strong servants with good martial arts and made a few friends of the same age.
When he had nothing to do, he would help his neighbors with some small chores, such as eggs from Old Yang's family, rice from Old Song's family, and extra tofu from Widow Liu's family. His life was colorful, as if the hardship of poverty over the past decade was just a dream.
In the blink of an eye, several years passed.
Ah Niu also grew from a simple teenager to a strong and healthy young man in the village.
Although the drought is still going on and the number of refugees around the town is increasing, they are still not disturbed.
Because the Third Master had amazing martial arts skills and was physically strong, ordinary refugees would not choose such a ferocious person even if they wanted to steal something.
If they were to steal things, they would choose those with no young and strong people but only widows and widowers, or those families with only the elderly, the weak and the sick.
But as time went by and the drought continued, the order of the town seemed to be on the verge of collapse.
This day.
In the courtyard of the Third Master's house.
Aniu took two huge stone bricks and hit his chest repeatedly.
Snap! Snap! Snap!
"Ah, Brother Niu! Are you there?"
A crisp voice came from outside the door.
Aniu's heart moved. Is it Liu Xiaohe, the daughter of the widow Liu next door?
He took a deep breath, put down a brick in his left hand, walked to the door, pulled the bolt and opened it.
With a creaking sound, a pretty face appeared in front of Aniu.
It’s Liu Xiaohe!
She was panting and seemed to have run over.
"What's wrong?"
"Brother Niu, Third Master, something's happened to Third Master! Hurry over! He's in front of the winery at the west entrance of town! He seems to have run into an enemy and got chopped off on one arm!"
Ah Niu's heart suddenly panicked. (End of this chapter)
