When Cao Dashan heard that Ling Jiheng was eating crabs at the foot of the mountain, he put down the planer in his hand and ran over.
Rubbing his hands, he asked, "Second Young Master, that blueprint..."
Ling Jiheng pulled out a piece of paper from his sleeve, on which were drawings of a flower stand, a flower trough, and a tray.
He also explained to Cao Dashan: "Look, this is the support frame, and this is the fixed connecting rod..."
Chi Xingyue was curious about Ling Jiheng's paintings, so she walked over in small steps.
When I saw the flower stand that looked like a sketch on the paper, I was stunned.
He looked at Ling Jiheng in disbelief, then at the flower stand, feeling that this world was somewhat mysterious.
Is he also wearing it? Then why didn’t he admit it when we exchanged secret codes before?
Ling Jiheng sensed Chi Xingyue's emotions and knew he couldn't avoid them any longer. He sighed and asked Cao Dashan, "Any questions?"
Cao Dashan shook his head: "No!"
"Okay then. Do it as soon as possible. I'll take as many as you can."
Cao Dashan was so excited that he stuttered, "One, twenty, do you want them too? They're not cheap!"
Ling Jiheng chuckled: "Yes, how about this, three sizes, make ten of each first, and we can work on the rest later."
After saying that, he took out a silver note from his sleeve and said, "This is your deposit. Make it as soon as possible and send it to the Ling family."
Cao Dashan nodded in agreement and looked at the banknote for a long time. Although he had never been to school, he still knew the numbers on the banknote.
Ten taels is really not a small amount.
Cao Dashan took the blueprint home and told his father, and then the two of them went up the mountain to cut wood.
I was very excited along the way because after completing this task, I would be able to marry a wife (daughter-in-law)!
Ling Jiheng stood on the edge of the field, looking into Chi Xingyue's eyes, and suddenly felt a little guilty.
After saying goodbye to the old lady and the old man, he took the remaining crabs, walnuts, chestnuts, and Chi Xingyue and went home.
The two of them didn't speak along the way until they met Ling Yi, then they asked someone to pack up their things and send them to the wing room.
He took Chi Xingyue's hand and ran straight to the west room.
The moment the door was locked, the light dimmed.
Chi Xingyue took a while to adjust before sitting down opposite the desk. He raised his hand to pour out a pot of tea and sipped the West Lake Longjing tea which exuded a faint fragrance.
Ling Jiheng suddenly lost his courage and walked to Chi Xingyue, not daring to speak.
After a long while, Chi Xingyue finally said, "Leniency to those who confess, severity to those who resist!"
Ling Jiheng breathed a sigh of relief, squatted down, held Chi Xingyue's hand and said, "I didn't mean to hide it from you!"
Chi Xingyue shook off his hand, feeling very depressed.
Ling Jiheng picked the person up, spun around and sat down, facing Chi Xingyue.
"I'm different from you. When I opened my eyes, I was in my mother's belly..."
Chi Xingyue understood that he had a fetal puncture.
Because of similar experiences, I firmly believe in the identity of the "little fairy". I cross it out and accept it well.
Chi Xingyue felt that from the first moment, his vest had been stripped off to just his underpants.
This guy, at most, didn't expose her privacy and kept her dignity.
"What year did you travel from?"
“1973!”
Chi Xingyue's eyes widened: "Did you lie to me?"
Ling Jiheng smiled bitterly: "What's the point of hiding it now?"
"Too!"
"Then...how did you get here?"
Ling Jiheng's thoughts returned to his previous life.
In his previous life, he was a son of a noble family and received a good education.
When the country was in danger, my grandfather donated all his property to support the Red Army's fight against Japan, and my father and uncles also gave up their pens to join the army, but no one returned.
In 1959, despite his mother's objections, he resolutely joined the army, but because his family was full of loyal and brave people, he was assigned to the kitchen team.
The leader said that this position is both a training opportunity and very important.
Ling Jiheng was not convinced. He knew that the leader did this because he was afraid that the Ling family would be extinct.
In 1962, when the border was disturbed, they were ordered to go and safeguard the territorial sovereignty and dignity.
The situation on the battlefield changed rapidly. As a cook, Ling Jiheng bravely resisted the enemy's sneak attack, and the regiment commander saw the determination in his eyes.
Finally, after the war, he was transferred to the reconnaissance company against all odds.
After that, he rose through the ranks and achieved one feat after another with his agility, while the scars on his body accumulated more and more.
Ling Jiheng did not let down the reputation of his father and uncles, and gained a firm foothold in the team.
Just when he thought he could give his mother and grandmother a better life, it was discovered that he was the descendant of a capitalist.
At that time, identity was particularly sensitive. Although I was in the army and was little affected, all the women in my family were demoted without exception.
After much deliberation, he changed his career to take care of his family nearby. However, he died in the mountains while arresting spies.
After hearing this, Chi Xingyue couldn't calm down for a long time.
Who would have thought that the person in front of us was once the hero who lived in the textbooks!
A sense of awe arose spontaneously, and Chi Xingyue even wanted to salute the other party.
Ling Jiheng saw the pain in her eyes and rubbed her hair with a smile: "It's all over!"
Chi Xingyue nodded: "Yes, the prosperity of this era is due to you."
The two chatted for a while, and Chi Xingyue told Ling Jiheng about the changes in Longguo after his sacrifice, and Ling Jiheng told her the place where he died.
Listening to the description, Chi Xingyue suddenly realized that this was her Nanshan Village. When she went up the mountain to investigate, she also heard the villagers tell stories about the revolutionary cause here.
Chi Xingyue looked at Ling Jiheng with a complicated expression. Could it be that she had a reason for traveling through time?
But she is a person who has traveled through the book!
"What's wrong?"
Chi Xingyue shook his head, shaking off those messy thoughts.
I comforted myself in my heart that it might be because the magnetic field in Nanshan Village is different, making it easy to break through the barriers of time and space.
As for this world, it may not be the world in the book.
The book she read at the time was nothing more than a secondary creation by the author after he had glimpsed the context of this time and space.
The two of them didn't discuss the issue anymore, and Chi Xingyue's anger gradually subsided.
How to say it, even though the two of them have been separated by decades, Chi Xingyue still feels that Ling Jiheng is an ally like herself.
"By the way, do you have any special abilities? Just like how I can hide the world in my sleeves!"
Ling Jiheng shook his head: "A little, but not that special!"
Chi Xingyue raised an eyebrow and leaned forward: "What's going on? It can't be mind reading!"
Ling Jiheng raised his hand and tapped Chi Xingyue's forehead, saying in a doting tone, "No, I just have a new set of exercises in my mind."
"Immortal cultivation technique?"
Ling Jiheng rolled his eyes: "Fist and kick skills!"
"So, that's how you got your skills? Including Ling Yi and the others, their fighting skills are far above the top level of this era!"
Ling Jiheng did not deny it, because in this era, there were indeed no very powerful martial arts.
Or perhaps there are, but they are all controlled by the aristocratic families. Even the military only practices a few simple movements during drills.
Every time there was a conflict, a large number of people and horses died. Those who survived were rewarded according to their merits.
Therefore, in ancient times, if you wanted to become a general, you not only had to be skilled in martial arts, but also had to be lucky.
