No matter what, there's always someone to say.

"It's really different, you said that Chen Mu's two sons, one is only thirteen years old and so powerful, you look at the other, it's that Chen Fan, who is memorizing the dead book all day long, what's the use? No wonder his father looks down on him. ”

"Chen Daniu, don't talk nonsense, although that Chen Fan is a little unbearable, but he is naturally different, just look at his half-black face. ”

"Hey, Aunt Chen, you always go against me, are you interesting! You said that his birthmark is a symbol of the chosen son, hehe, this is impossible, you can see if you look at his eldest brother, who is more like the chosen son, at a glance! Maybe, his birthmark is a symbol of bad luck!"

Although this short conversation was inadvertent, it was still heard by Chen Fan. Chen Fan touched his left face with his left hand, and then clenched his right fist, anger and jealousy were already revealed in his heart at this time.

When Chen Mu and Chen Fang appeared, everyone congratulated them on having such a powerful son, and then whispered about Chen Fan's mediocrity. Chen Fang touched Chen Fan's head and said: "Fan'er, don't listen to others' nonsense, you are the pride of your mother, even if you can't become an immortal, but in your mother's heart, you will always be a genius, the chosen son, and your mother will always support you." ”

After Chen Mu heard everyone's discussion, his heart was a little complicated, he glanced at Chen Fan, and then at Chen Lin, he decided to walk towards Chen Lin.

"Lin'er, you're doing a great job. Now that you are thirteen years old, you have comprehended the way of the sword, which is already good in the three major immortal mountains, the ten immortal halls, the thirty-six immortal islands, and the seventy-two immortal sects. Tomorrow, I'll teach you how to practice swordsmanship. Chen Mu said softly.

"Dad, but, I have already agreed to go to see the sea with Xiaofan. Chen Lin said nervously.

"You have just comprehended the way of the sword now, and your foundation is not stable, so you can't travel far, so let's cultivate first, and just drag it out for a while. ”

When Chen Fan heard this, he immediately ran up and said to Chen Lin with a smile: "Brother, you can cultivate with peace of mind, I can go alone, and I will tell you the magnificence of the sea when the time comes." ”

Chen Lin hesitated a little, and Chen Mu continued: "Your brother has said so, you can stay first, cultivation is important." ”

Chen Lin didn't make a sound, so he could only nod helplessly.

Chen Fan smiled and patted Chen Lin's shoulder, and then said, "It's almost dawn, I'll go back and prepare first." After that, he walked away in style.

On the way home, Chen Fan held back tears and muttered to himself: "Dad, no, Chen Mu! I knew you didn't like me when I was a child, and I kept holding back." Today, the eldest brother has become an immortal, this is what you are looking forward to day and night, and your wish has come true, so you can leave me alone, right! However, I will prove to you sooner or later, I am not worse than the eldest brother!"

He remembered the discussion of the people, he remembered his father's attitude, he remembered his own incompetence, he couldn't let people see his tears, he couldn't let people see his weakness. As the saying goes, even if you fail, you must put on a heroic spirit.

Chen Fang also returned home immediately, she helped clean up her things, and she kept telling Chen Fan to pay attention to safety, remember to eat on time, and not to cause trouble...... Chen Fan smiled and said, "Mother, I know, although it is the first time for me to go far away, but with the village chief by my side, I will be fine." ”

Chen Fang suddenly remembered: "By the way, there are still four baked cakes in the pot, you take them first, save some food on the way, you should be able to last a journey." ”

"Mother, I'll just take one. Leave the rest to yourself, big brother, and dad. If I eat it, they will starve today, and my brother is injured, so you should go and see him first. ”

"Hey, you kid, don't you listen to your mother's words?! I told you to take it, how can a mother not see off her son. Take the baked cake and this cloth bag, although it is a little broken, but it can still hold a lot of clothes and food. ”

"Well, mother, I'm ......" As he spoke, Chen Fan couldn't hold back his tears, and directly hugged Chen Fang and cried.

"I'm ashamed, I'm ten years old, I'm still crying, I'm not afraid of other people's jokes. ”

"I don't care, I can do it if I want, as long as my mother doesn't dislike me, I'm not afraid of anyone making fun of me. ”

"Silly boy. Okay, hurry up and pack your things, it's almost dawn, don't make the village chief wait too long. ”

After packing up for a while, the clothes, food, and daily necessities were all packed into the cloth bag, and the cloth bag was propped up to the full.

"Pack up, mother, I'm leaving, you pay attention to your body, don't worry about me. ”

"Okay, be careful all the way, and listen to the village chief. By the way, aren't you going to say goodbye to your brother and father?"

"I'll go right away. Let's go, mother, goodbye!" Chen Fan walked straight away, without looking back, thinking to himself, parting should be like this, leaving no regrets, not taking away a trace of concern, and going on the road easily.

As the sun rose, a young man in a coarse rag shirt carried a brown cloth bag and walked straight into the sky, combining an old man with an old man on the way, and then disappeared into the sea of sand together.

"Brother, and Chen Mu, I'm sorry, forgive me for saying goodbye. One day, I will be in the spotlight like my big brother and become the true chosen one!"

Another day, somewhere in the desert, noon.

"Old village chief, we've been walking for three days, when will we be able to get out of this desert?"

The sand and gravel were hot, his hands and feet were tired and panicked, and the heat wave was rolling into, which was unbearable, Chen Fan asked bitterly.

"Children are children after all, I haven't complained about an old man, you are better, than I have no patience. The old village chief said smugly.

"I think you don't know how to walk, and you're embarrassed to say that you're lost, it's really shameless. ”

"Hey, stinky boy, don't you know how to respect teachers? ”

"Look, there's a fire wolf ahead!" Chen Fan shouted.

"You kid, did you only see the fire wolf? didn't you see the red snake that attacked the fire wolf?!"

"Is that big red snake a red snake? I heard that its poisonous mist can paralyze all living things, and its venom can kill a person in three breaths, is it true?"

"It's not true, don't you know if you try it, forget it, the child just doesn't know and is too lazy to pay attention to you. ”

Chen Fan and the village chief hid in the distance and watched the red snake fight with the fire wolf, obviously, the fire wolf was no match for the red snake, it was poisoned after being bitten by the red snake, and now it is paralyzed on the ground and dying. The Red Snake did not eat the fire wolf, and after killing the fire wolf, it quickly evacuated, because it knew that the fire wolf had gathered the wolves, and if it did not leave quickly, it would eventually become the lunch of the fire wolf pack.

Seeing the red snake leave, Chen Fan secretly walked over, and he gently kicked the fire wolf, making sure that it was dead.

"Village Chief, today's lunch has been settled!" Chen Fan took the knife and wanted to dissolve the fire wolf.

"Stop! Run now! When the fire wolf finds its prey, it will notify its companions, and then a group of fire wolves will besiege us, and then we will have no choice but to die!" said the village chief in a panic.

"What! Why didn't you say it earlier, alas, the meat in the mouth flew. Village Chief, let's run away. Chen Fan ran away immediately before he finished speaking, his heart fluttering, afraid that the wolves would chase him.

The old village chief twitched his face and said helplessly: "Wait for me, my old bones can't run!"
