Chapter 423: Trial
Lu Changan felt that he had become a piece of flying catkins, and he entered another self with a fluttering flutter. The one who did not enter the Heavenly Yan Sect to cultivate immortal enlightenment, but still stayed in the mortal world and worked hard to practice martial arts and serve his sick mother.
Every day before dawn, he got up to practice, and after some exercises, he waited until his mother got up, and after serving his mother and drank the medicine, he carried a quiver into the mountains to hunt. This day is no exception.
"Mother, I'm leaving, Xiaocui will bring you food at noon. You want to eat it hot, don't sit outside the door for too long, and be careful of catching a cold. As he spoke, he helped his mother to the small adobe-walled yard and put a small rabbit fur blanket on her lap.
"Alright, got it. Alas, it's all my fault for this disease, which caused you to have a good martial arts but you can only waste at home, and you can't make meritorious contributions. Alas......" mother sighed.
Lu Changan has heard this a lot, and his heart has no waves, and now he only asks his mother to live for two more years, so that he can repay the kindness of raising in this life. "Mother, don't say that. Not all of your illnesses were contracted for me. Neither of us owes anyone. Lu Changan pretended to be free and easy.
At this time, Xiao Cui, a neighbor of Uncle Cui's house, knocked on the door, and then pushed the door in. Seeing that Lu Changan was still at home, he couldn't help blushing a little, and shouted shyly: "Lu... Brother Lu, you haven't left yet. His fingers twisted in his handkerchief, his face blushed, and he stared down at his toes. Lu Changan was a little puzzled and looked at his mother. The mother smiled meaningfully, raised her chin, and asked him to come back to Xiaocui first. Lu Changan had to clear his throat and replied loudly: "I just told my mother a few words, and I am about to go out, Xiaocui, what are you doing at this time?"
Xiao Cui ran to Lu's mother's side with a red face, squatted down and looked at Lu's mother obediently, and said with a sweet smile: "I'll ask my aunt, what do you want to eat at noon, I'll do it together." Mother Lu patted Xiaocui's head with a loving smile and said, "You can make a light dish at will, but I don't live all day long, so I can't eat much." ”
"Well, I see. After speaking, Xiaocui trotted out of the small courtyard of the Lu family. When passing by Lu Changan's side, he also sent an autumn wave intentionally or unintentionally.
"Then please, little..." Before Lu Chang'an finished speaking, Xiao Cui disappeared like a spring breeze in transit. Lu Changan shook and was about to go out, Lu Mu smiled and took Lu Changan's hand and said softly: "Xiaocui is a good girl. Lu Changan nodded thoughtfully, raised his feet and left the small courtyard.
How could Lu Changan not know Xiao Cui's straightforward and bold intentions, he just didn't dare and couldn't respond. His mother was seriously ill for the past two years, Lu Changan had already planned in his heart, and when he was done with his mother, he would join the army, serve the country, and realize his great wishes, just like his father, to be a hero who was born and died as a ghost.
Let's let go of this child's affection, and if you are empty, you must tell Xiaocui your intentions, don't let her wait for a while, and waste a good year. Thinking so, I walked all the way to the most prosperous market in the town.
"Yo, Chang'an, let's go into the mountains. The shopkeeper Liu of the restaurant greeted Lu Changan warmly, "Help me see if there are wild minks today, my lady is about to celebrate her birthday, I want to give her a mink collar." Shopkeeper Liu smiled kindly.
"Okay, I'll help you look at it. Lu Changan smiled heartily.
"If you have worked, don't worry, the money will definitely be yours. Shopkeeper Liu waved his hand to Lu Changan.
I didn't take two steps before I met Xu Langzhong, who was going to the pharmacy after breakfast at the breakfast stall. Xu Langzhong is already in his old age, but he is in good spirits, his body is very strong, and he can eat five eggs in one breakfast.
"Chang'an, when you came back, you wanted to get medicine for your mother, it's almost summer, I adjusted the prescription, and your mother will be prosperous as soon as the summer is empty. Xu Langzhong stood on the steps with his hands behind his back, looking at Lu Changan with a loving face.
"Okay, Uncle Xu, I'll see if there are any fatter rabbits today, and it's good to call you to make cold rabbits." Lu Changan knew that although Xu Langzhong paid attention to health preservation, he was extremely spicy.
"Good boy, then I'll be waiting for it. Xu Langzhong said with a smile.
Lu Changan waved goodbye to Xu Langzhong, took the fritters handed over by Aunt Wang, bit the fritters and walked towards the mountain. Although this town is small, the residents are all very kind and courteous people, who do not close their doors day and night, do not leave the road behind, and live out of it is a paradise. Lu Changan and his mother have lived here and received a lot of care over the years, although they are poorer, they are also happy, and they are much better than the days when they were afraid in the capital.
Lu Changan gradually walked towards the depths of the mountains, and the more he walked, the more Lu Changan felt that today's mountains and forests were full of strange atmosphere. On weekdays, the morning is the most active time for the birds, and all kinds of birds can be heard all over the mountains, but today it is silent, and you can only hear the rustle of your own steps among the fallen leaves. I can't see a single hare today, and these guys are usually the most lonely, but today they don't even see a single hair.
Just as Lu Chang'an was nahan, a blue light suddenly crossed in front of his eyes. The keen nature of a hunter in his bones quickly caught the blue light that had just hurried in front of him, and chased the blue light that seemed to be deliberately luring him to come.
The blue light gradually disappeared, and Lu Changan also slowed down, cautiously looking for the source of the blue light in the grass that was flush with his calf. Suddenly, he saw a bead that shone with a faint blue cold light, and the bead seemed to exude an irresistible attraction, so that he involuntarily reached out and picked up the bead on the ground.
The moment the beads touched the palm, the past flashed back in my mind like a book, how my father was framed as a traitor, and how I and my mother escaped death with the help of my father's old department. The anger, humiliation, resentment, and unwillingness to have a good martial arts but not be able to do anything for many years all came to my heart at once.
All the sensations seemed to be woven into a strand of hemp rope around his neck in an instant, as if this soul no longer belonged to him. Lu Changan shook his head vigorously, trying to sober himself up, but he felt a burst of qi and blood churning in his body, and a stream of blood spurted out of his mouth.
The heart was not good, Lu Changan wanted to throw away the bead quickly, but the ghost sent it into his arms. At this time, the fog in the forest surged, and Lu Changan couldn't manage so much, so he put away the beads, and then raised his legs and ran down the mountain. The fog seemed to have the momentum of swallowing people, forcing Lu Changan to run forward without stopping for a moment.
At this time, Lu Changan did not know what kind of reality he would face.
