Chapter 5: Braised Pork

Dark Small Medium Large Original Scroll to Bottom

It is time to eat

... ...

After a night of intimacy, Zhao Yunniang indeed developed a trace of affection for him

Even if my consciousness departs from another version of myself, he will continue to live normally

This morning, when I sent my wife away, I left her a silver ingot

Your ... ...

He remembered this kindness

If Xu Xing is about to reach the brink of death, he would be utterly disinclined to pay any attention to Chang Ji

However, when I open the next world, perhaps I will no longer descend as a 'soul' but will directly traverse to another world in the form of a physical body

The error is only less than one to two quarters.

Scholar Su ranks among the top five in the literary circles of Fengxi Kingdom, and is a literary friend of Ouyang Zaizhi. His contemporaries, fellow townsmen, and friends are spread throughout the court and the common people, making it only a matter of time before he is brought to prominence

Still in Room 24 of the Heavenly Prison in Fengxi Kingdom

It seems that ... ...

As for flattery

It is acceptable to descend in the form of a soul.

Walking slowly in confusion

After applying the medicine, the boy lit the oil lamp

The sun and stars hang high in the sky

As Master Ma, a red stick of the Filial Piety Hall, aimed to strengthen the power of the Filial Piety Hall and to increase the success rate of the assassination mission against Governor Fang Yun scheduled for one month later, he imparted a portion of his martial arts knowledge to him

When in a position of authority, one should not be concerned with personal reputation

Although there were people watching, money was still used

A dynamic image gradually appears on the mirror's surface

Approximately two hours have passed in the real world, while an entire day has elapsed in the mirror world. This translates to a time ratio of about one to five.

Through the half-foot window of the dungeon cell, I took a slow glance outside, revealing a dark passageway

He did not hurriedly shift his gaze, but instead continued to quietly observe the mirror.

Confucianism teaches that one should not be weary of fine food, nor of finely sliced meat

Man is like iron, rice is like steel, missing a meal makes one feel anxious

In this lifetime, although my body and Brother Hai are familiar with each other, I have never seen Brother Hai practice martial arts, let alone accidentally catch a glimpse of that astonishing strike from him during the day

The prison guard, Old Li, carried a food bucket. After serving Scholar Su a bowl of porridge that was a mix of thick and thin, he quickly walked over to Xu Xing. First, he scooped out a bowl of thick porridge that resembled rice, and then handed over a bowl of braised pork along with two large white steamed buns

At this point, it is too late

Lord Su, Lord Xu

World: Late Qing and Republic of China (Various Heavens)

Last night, his numerous "favors" towards Zhao Yunniang were not in vain. Han Sui allowed him to leave offspring, intending for him to die young, and would certainly not let him eat meat again to nourish his body

This is applying eye medicine to the emperor

In the dimly lit earthen house, he slept side by side with his younger brother.

Whether it is Xu Xing or Hai Ge, both individuals are not very talkative and are not considered to be loquacious people

However, dishes such as braised pork can only be enjoyed by Scholar Su once every ten days

In all matters, think thrice before acting

If the food is exquisite, it is most likely a meal of last resort

After receiving the steamed bun, Scholar Su briefly uttered a sentence and then began to eat and drink heartily.

It is more important to first evade the inevitable calamity.

And he, like a bystander

It is a common occurrence for subordinates to flatter their superiors

However, just after Xu Xing had taken a few bites, he noticed Scholar Su from the neighboring prison gazing at him with a longing expression.

Fate: A life of untimely death (Gray)

However, Chang Ji does not imply that Xu Xing is of no use at this moment

Xu Xing indeed had the intention to ask why the child could "control the sword with qi"

Chang Ji was a General of the Fifth Rank, known as Dingyuan. Due to the invasion of the Tartars in the seventeenth year of the Chongming era, Chang Ji avoided battle, which led to him being imprisoned in the heavenly prison by the Chongming Emperor for nearly three years.

What is the other 'me' doing now

Within the confines of the cell, although there were some leftovers from last night, he dared not touch the food again. The room had been laced with an aphrodisiac known as the Musk Dragon Powder, and his frail body could not withstand a second violation.

He had just offended Xu Xing in the morning, but now Xu Xing is unconcerned and repays the grievance with virtue

The sound of footsteps echoed again in the corridor of the dungeon.

Chang Ji is not a renowned general, but merely an ordinary commander

This is even more precious than the pole techniques taught by Master Ma

Relationships are built gradually; one cannot wait until the last moment to seek help.

However ... ...

As the time in the real world passed noon, the scene in the mirrored world shifted to the early hours of the next day, at the crowing of the rooster. According to the development of the plot, "Xu Xing" began to continue practicing stance techniques in the backyard with Master Ma.

So it is like this

He glanced again at the mirrored surface converted to panel data

Although the courtesan is heartless, the actor is ungrateful

The flow of time in the world within the mirror is far faster than that in the real world

But if one were to indulge in feasting and drinking all day in the dungeon

Do not worry about scarcity, but rather about inequality

Arrival: Soul.

After thanking the prison guard, Xu Xing also began to eat.

Mirror Master: Xu Xing

While Xu Xing flattered Scholar Su, he overlooked him, which surely did not sit well with him

Hmph

Under normal circumstances, the daily food for prisoners in the sky prison consists only of thin porridge and Chinese cabbage

His consciousness is immersed in the ancient realm of bronze

... ...

General Chang

In addition, the shadows formed by the sunlight in the prison cell, combined with the daily roll call times of the guards, can also provide a rough estimate of the twelve double hours of the day

Moreover, in just a short month, even if he is exceptionally talented, he will not be able to achieve significant progress in his internal cultivation.

Return to the real world

If I suddenly disappear in prison, it will certainly attract the attention of the guards, and it will be difficult to explain at that time

The panel is concise and clear, providing a comprehensive overview

The Dao fruit: none

Xu Xing breathed a sigh of relief and took the bowl of rice

Seeing Xu Xing's gloomy expression and his refusal to take the bowl, Old Li hurriedly offered an explanation

Indeed, it is a time ratio of 1 to 5

He smiled lightly and walked over holding the braised pork

By merely sacrificing a bit of face, one can achieve what is otherwise unattainable despite great effort... Why not seek to ingratiate oneself?

However, the breathing of the two of them was noticeably faster than that of ordinary people, as if the movie had been fast-forwarded.

Xu Xing withdrew his gaze from the mirror, pondering silently

It is not that the Su family lacks money, but rather that one should behave appropriately while in prison. Occasionally having a meal is a common human sentiment, and the emperor, upon hearing of it, would turn a blind eye.

Two people are sleeping fully clothed on the kang

In the morning, the time he entered the mirror world was approximately 7:30.

It is currently a quarter past noon

In a previous life, scientists spoke of parallel universes... the figure of Xu Xing in the mirror should be another version of me from a parallel world, only this 'me' is now under my control

If he is not mistaken, even if he masters the stance technique and receives the Guanxi Wujidao, he will not reach the level of Master Ma, because Master Ma possesses a family inheritance of internal skills

A scholar like Su, who comes from a prestigious and distinguished background, has never endured the hardships of a prison cell, and his meals are not even as good as those of ordinary commoners.

As a General of the Fifth Rank, Chang Ji is undoubtedly an elite talent of the Fengxi Kingdom. At this moment, he is exploring the instance world, and it is possible that he will need Chang Ji's assistance at any time

Time flow rate: 1 to 5

Using qi to break objects likely involves the profound secrets of internal martial arts

The inmate in the neighboring prison on the right, upon witnessing this, let out a cold snort and began to drink his thin porridge, which was so watery that even chopsticks could not stand upright in it

and gave Scholar Su a large white steamed bun

Having lived in Fengxi Kingdom for nearly twenty years, he, like many ancient commoners, developed a biological clock, able to estimate the time of day with just a glance at the sun

Inquire about the family secret skills of Brother Hai; even if Xu Xing does not harbor any covetous thoughts, once the words are spoken, who knows whether it might lead Master Ma to regard him with "new eyes"

The scouts of the Night Watch are also keeping an eye on the guards of the sky prison, and the actions of the officials have long been recorded in the unpredictable ledger of the Night Watch's scouts

He is merely a brother in the same guild as Master Ma

However, he hesitated for a moment and still did not speak up about it

The kindness of a meal shall surely be repaid by Su in the future

This ingot of silver is likely Zhao Yunniang's private savings

Xu Xing shook his head

However, there is a saying: A day as husband and wife brings a hundred days of affection

Upon seeing this, Xu Xing was not annoyed; instead, he used another steamed bun to sandwich some braised pork and handed it to Chang Ji

Chang Ji is unlike Scholar Su, who will one day be reinstated to his official position
