The game starts with escaping from the famine and flipping the table

The ancients spared no effort in learning, and their hard work in youth was only completed in old age. What you learn from books is always shallow, and you must practice it yourself to fully understand it.

Not only was Madam Liu working hard to provide for everyone in the Liu family, the old doctor Shi Houpu and his little granddaughter Shi Peilan were working day and night to make medicine pills and boil medicinal soups, trying their best to regulate everyone's health.

Ge Hanxing, the old man with both legs broken, is now getting healthier day by day, his internal strength is gradually recovering, and his whole body is becoming more rosy, thanks to Shi Houpu's treatment and the hundred-year-old ginseng that Nanny Liu bought at a high price.

The one-eyed old lady Dou Xingpeng's eye was completely damaged and could not be restored. However, with careful care, her body became healthier day by day.

Zhan Shuilai, a one-armed, silver-haired paralyzed old man, has Ge Hanxing giving him acupuncture, massage, and medicinal baths every day, and prescribing medicine for him every day. Although he cannot recover in a short period of time, his condition has not continued to deteriorate. I believe that if he persists for a year or so, he still has a chance of recovery.

Ge Hanxing really had no way to help the white-haired grandmother Sun Yueyan whose tendons were cut. After all, the tendons of Grandma Sun's hands were cut too thoroughly and too long ago, so the tendons had long since atrophied.

Not to mention Ge Hanxing, even if the imperial physician came, there would be no way to help Sun Yueyan reconnect the tendons.

However, Granny Sun was quite calm. Apart from instructing the maids on double-sided embroidery, she also practiced "throwing" stones and spitting melon seeds every day.

Yes, throwing stones.

Granny Sun held the stone with both wrists and threw it out.

It is easier to understand "spitting melon seeds", it means exactly what it says.

Of course, Grandma Sun's goal was to develop the ability to protect herself. Grandma Sun knew that they would eventually leave the capital, leave this sad place, and leave the cage that trapped their hopes.

revenge?

Yes for sure.

But, definitely not now.

Each of them carries a blood feud.

But, don't be impatient.

They won't be exposed until they are strong enough.

Ye Feijie, a silver-haired old man with a broken leg, hunched body and wrinkled face, is now concentrating on taking care of his body and throwing stones every day. After escaping from Kyoto, he still has many things to do.

Ye Feijie now has only one thought, that is, he must not become a burden to everyone.

Xie Ziliang, Xie Zilong, Xie Zihu, Xie Ziquan, Xie Zihan, Xie Ziyue, Xie Zichu, Xie Zihuang, Xie Zimu, Xie Ziying, Xie Zixuan, Xie Zidie, Xie Ziwei, Xie Ziyun, Xie Zilan and Xie Ziyan are all studying hard.

Of course, the daily herb collection continues.

However, what we pick nowadays are some high-value medicinal herbs.

Zhan Shuilai has been teaching these children since they were in the dilapidated temple: Even in the face of adversity, they must remain steadfast and unyielding.

Don't be afraid of being shattered into pieces, you want to leave your innocence in the world.

The pride of a gentleman is like the plum blossom, which still blooms with its subtle fragrance and pleasant temperament in the bitter cold.

As a person, you should have a proud character, but not be arrogant. If you are proud but not arrogant, you must have integrity inside, and you will naturally remain calm in danger and be an open-minded person.

No matter how many setbacks you encounter, you can never break your pride. After all, you must remember that everyone is mortal since ancient times, so leave your loyalty to shine in history.

Death is not terrible.

What is scary is that adversity wears out one’s ambition, breaks one’s pride, and leads one to succumb to darkness.

For these children, Zhan Shuilai would even tell them some Buddhist stories.

For example:

At the Lingshan Conference, the Buddha showed a colored Mani Pearl in his hand and asked the four heavenly kings: "Tell me, what color is this Mani Pearl?"

After the Four Heavenly Kings saw them, they each said they were different colors, such as blue, yellow, red, and white.

The Buddha took the Mani Pearl back, opened his empty palm, and asked again: "What color is the Mani Pearl in my hand now?"

The four heavenly kings said in unison: "Buddha, you have nothing in your hand now, how can you have the Mani Pearl?"

The Buddha then said: "I showed you a worldly pearl, and you all could tell its color. But the real pearl is in front of you, but you cannot see it. How absurd!"

Although there is nothing in the Buddha's hands, as Su Shi said in his poem:

"There is no end to treasures in anything, there are flowers, there is the moon, there are towers."

Precisely because of “nothingness”, there are “infinite possibilities”.

The Buddha lamented that the world is "upside down" because people only cling to "existence" and do not know the infinite wonderful uses of "emptiness"; they are always confused by external, tangible things.

Like a ruined temple, they seem to be extremely poor, with nothing and lacking everything. Even staying alive is a struggle.

However, they have many things that ordinary people do not have:

Knowledge!

Skill!
