Chen Hao looked at his elder brother Chen Xi nervously, not daring to let out the air.
My brother took care of himself to eat, sleep, and sent himself to the best martial arts gym in Songyan City for training. The hard-earned primeval stones were also spent on himself, but my brother was never willing to spend a little bit of yuan. stone.
Chen Hao knows that his brother seems to be cold, but he is actually very good-hearted, and he is meticulous to himself and his grandfather, but why is everyone laughing at him?
Facial paralysis Chen, broom star…
Thinking of these vicious nicknames, Chen Hao’s heart is full of anger, and he can’t wait to tear the mouths of those who laugh at his brother.
“Hmph, as long as they scold my brother again, I will beat them!”
Chen Hao clenched his small fist and secretly decided in his heart.
“Let’s go home for dinner first.”
Chen Xi woke up from the silence, took a deep breath, patted Chen Hao on the shoulder, pushed open the dilapidated door, and walked inside.
“Brother, don’t you blame me?”
Chen Hao was stunned for a moment, then grinned happily and said, “Okay, brother, my stomach is going flat.”
……
In the room, dim pine oil lamps flickered dimly, illuminating the cramped and cramped wooden house.
An old man with sparse hair was sitting quietly at the dining table.
The old man’s name is Chen Tianli. He was also a powerful figure in Songyan City in the past. Unfortunately, with the extermination of the Chen family, he also relapsed due to his old illness, and his cultivation was completely abolished, becoming an ordinary old man.
“Grandpa.”
Chen Xi sat silently at the table, looking at a plate of sauerkraut and three bowls of white rice on the table, he couldn’t help sighing in his heart, he was still too stupid, if he could earn more primeval stones every day, grandfather and younger brother would Don’t suffer.
“Eating.” Chen Tianli’s voice was hoarse and low, “I have something to say after eating.”
Chen Xi was startled, then nodded: “En.”
The three grandfather and grandson had a very interesting meal. Chen Xi and grandfather only ate white rice, and gave Chen Hao a small plate of pickles. The little guy knew that it was no use to refuse, so he just buried himself in the meal, repeating a very early standing in his heart. The oath I made: “Grandpa, brother, when I practice and become stronger, I will give you all the delicious food in the world, and I will never eat these **** pickles again!”
After dinner, Chen Hao neatly packed his dishes and walked out of the house with a wooden sword in his hand. He wants to practice swords, and he wants to seize every minute to make himself stronger!
“How many times have you practiced “Zi Xiao Gong”?” Chen Tianli listened to the sound of Huo Huo practicing swords coming from outside the window, and his old face showed a touch of relief.
“Zi Xiao Gong” is a qi-refining technique passed down by the ancestors of the Chen family. There are eighteen levels in total, and it records in detail the cultivation techniques from the ninth level of the acquired to the ninth level of the innate.
“It’s still the thirteenth level.” Even when Chen Xi was talking to his grandfather, his face was still as cold as before, and that calm and dull aura seemed to never change.
“Oh.”
Chen Tianli nodded, noncommittal, but there was a complex emotion in his heart.
He both loves and hates this grandson. Ever since Chen Xi was born, the entire Chen family has suffered bad news—the family has been destroyed, Chen Xi’s biological mother abandoned the house, and Chen Xi’s father stayed away with hatred…
What’s particularly abominable is that the Su family in Longyuan City actually tore up the marriage contract they made before in front of everyone in Songyan City, making Chen Tianli’s old face completely humiliated. , Unreasonable, he can’t wait to end his life by suicide!
Sometimes he also suspects that his grandson is, as rumored, a broom star on the head of bad luck. However, he quickly discarded this idea, and the entire Chen clan was left with only their grandfather and grandson. In addition, his body was deteriorating day by day, and he could barely make a living by relying on Chen Xi to help people make talismans.
In other words, it is precisely because of Chen Xi’s presence that over the years, their family has not fallen into the fold of beggars, and the youngest grandson, Chen Hao, has entered the famous Tianxing in Songyan City thanks to Chen Xi’s hard work. Martial arts practice.
Thinking of this, Chen Tianli’s heart filled with warmth again. No matter how unlucky, Xiaoxi is also his grandson and Chen’s own flesh and blood!
“These years, I have wronged you.”
Chen Tianli sighed: “I let Xiaohao eat well, dress well, and even enter the martial arts hall to practice martial arts, but I made you work hard for your livelihood, and you didn’t end up doing well. Grandpa, I…I’m sorry for you.”
Chen Xi’s body froze, and the grief that had been suppressed in the depths of his heart for many years was about to move, he quickly took a deep breath, suppressed the grief, shook his head and said, “You are old and sturdy, and Xiaohao is young and ignorant. , these things should naturally be done by me.”
Chen Tianli smiled and waved: “Don’t mention these.”
Chen Xi nodded and remained silent.
His temperament is inherently withdrawn and timid, and he is not good at words. In recent years, he has often been ridiculed and ridiculed by people around him, which has made him more introverted. He would rather act silently than say a word of nonsense.
“Longyuan City Qianjian Sect will open its gates in half a month and recruit disciples. I plan to take Xiaohao to try it out.” After thinking for a long time, Chen Tianli said suddenly.
Chen Xi was stunned and said, “Alright, leaving Songyan City is more beneficial to Xiaohao’s growth.”
Chen Tianli couldn’t help but ask: “You… don’t blame grandpa for being partial, right?”
Chen Xi shook his head: “I follow Grandpa’s arrangement.”
Chen Tianli looked at his grandson’s face carefully, as if he wanted to see something from it, and then to his disappointment, Chen Xi’s appearance was the same from the beginning to the end. wood.
“I don’t miss out in the crowd, I’m more and more silent when I speak, my temperament is so stubborn and tenacious, I don’t know if it’s good or bad, alas.”
Chen Tianli sighed deeply, got up and went back to the house.
……
The next morning.
When Chen Xi woke up, the day had just broken, and he had rinsed with cold water. As soon as he walked out of the house, he saw his younger brother Chen Hao practicing swords.
Brush! brush! brush!
The wooden sword swayed, making bursts of rushing sounds of breaking through the air. Chen Hao held the sword in his right hand.
His little face was full of sweat, but there was a firm look between his tender brows. The wooden sword in his hand did not tremble at all, calm and skillful.
Chen Xi watched silently for a moment, without disturbing his younger brother. After hurriedly preparing the meal, instead of making a talisman as usual, he quickly ran towards Zhang’s grocery store.
“Ah, the facial paralysis Chen is here again!”
“Hey, I thought I would come to work in the morning and I wouldn’t run into him, but who knows, I ran into it anyway, so unlucky.”
In Zhang’s grocery store, the newly arrived Fu apprentice saw Chen Xi walking in, and they all avoided him, as if they were afraid of bad luck.
“Uncle Zhang, I want to borrow a hundred primeval stones first, but I don’t know if it’s okay?” Chen Xi didn’t have the mind to pay attention to these guys who sneered at him, so he went straight to the counter and made his request to Zhang Dayong.
Zhang Dayong wondered: “Chen Xi, what happened? Tell me, maybe I can help.”
Chen Xi has helped his grocery store make talismans for more than five years, and he has never borrowed money from him. Today, he suddenly asked to borrow a hundred primeval stones. Naturally, he was very puzzled. He planned to help this little one if he could. Guys.
Chen Xi heard the care in Zhang Dayong’s words, and his heart warmed. He shook his head and said, “I haven’t encountered any trouble, I just want to buy something.”
Zhang Dayong suddenly took out a spiritual jade and said, “Well, is it enough? I’ll lend you some more.”
“Enough, thank you Uncle Zhang, I will exchange it for you soon.”
A spiritual jade is roughly equivalent to a hundred primeval stones, and it is only the kind that is high and not low. After Chen Xi took Lingyu, he turned around and left, walking in a hurry.
“Strange, this kid is extremely frugal for the family’s livelihood, and he never spends money indiscriminately. What’s going on today?”
Zhang Dayong watched Chen Xi’s back disappear outside the store door, puzzled.
……
Bai Lian Tang, located in the bustling street in the center of Songyan City, specializes in weapons and equipment needed by some monks. It is large in scale and quite famous in Songyan City.
After Chen Xi went in, a piece of spiritual jade was spent in less than a quarter of an hour, and he didn’t feel any pain, instead he felt relieved.
When I got home, it was almost noon, Chen Tianli was packing, and Chen Hao was sitting in front of the door, holding his face in his hands, not knowing what he was thinking.
“Brother, you’re back.” Chen Hao stood up suddenly, his face full of joy.
Chen Xi touched Chen Hao’s head and said, “Let’s go in a while?”
Chen Hao nodded, his expression became sad, he was reluctant to leave his brother, and he felt sad when he thought that after going to Longyuan City, he would not be able to see his brother again.
Chen Xi took out a long jade box and handed it over: “I bought it for you, you have to work hard.”
“Bought for me?”
Chen Hao was stunned, looking at the exquisite jade box, he couldn’t believe his eyes for a while.
From childhood to adulthood, whenever he saw other people’s children showing off all kinds of gifts, he was extremely envious, but never dared to have them. Because he knew that the lives of his grandfather and grandson depended on his brother’s hard work to maintain it. In this case, he didn’t dare to ask extravagantly.
Now, when he was about to leave, his brother bought himself a gift without saying a word. How could he not be moved?
“Brother…”
Chen Hao’s voice was a little choked. He lowered his head and tried hard not to cry, but his eyes were flushed.
Chen Xi patted his younger brother on the shoulder: “Take care of grandpa, but also take care of yourself.”
“Yeah!” Chen Hao nodded fiercely.
“I’ll go see Grandpa, and I’ll take you out of the city later.” A rare smile appeared on Chen Xi’s face as he turned around and walked into the house.
Chen Hao took a deep breath and slowly opened the jade box. A long sword with a cold luster was quietly placed in the jade box.
Om!
Pick up the long sword~IndoMTL.com~ True essence surged, the long sword suddenly let out a clear groan, and a sharp and sharp air spurted out.
“Brother, don’t worry, I won’t let you down!”
Chen Hao looked at the long sword in his hand, his eyes were firm, as if he had grown up overnight, and he was no longer the ignorant child he used to be.
……
At noon, the Golden Crow hangs high.
Outside the city gate.
A carriage carrying the grandfather and grandson slowly drove away.
Chen Xi stood on the city wall, staring into the distance, his heart was up and down.
