Chapter 7: The Unfilial Son
The breeze in the valley is slow, and the valley lord Long Zhan stands quietly in the study. Holding a pen in his hand, the dragon flew and danced on that huge white paper, and in an instant, countless memories were evoked in his mind.
Or swords, or blood. All kinds of things have flickered in the past with just one stroke.
"Wu Tianxing, you have no way out, so you can be arrested obediently. ”
"You brute, we've always thought of you as one of our own. I didn't expect you to not only trespass on the forbidden land, but also destroy humanity and harm your fellow disciples. ”
......
As soon as the gesture in Long Zhan's hand stopped, all kinds of curses appeared in his ears. It was like rolling thunder, vibrating frequently in the ears. Suddenly, a desolate laugh covered up all the layers of curses, which made people shudder when they heard it.
"Hahaha.... So far, what I'm saying is unintentional. I, Wu Tianxing, are here, and if you want to take my life, you will come to fight. ”
The voice of desolation, containing the determination to die. A roar of rage shook the sky. Long Zhan closed his eyes and recalled, the sound of death, the fearless eyes, until he thought of it at this moment, it still made his whole body tremble slightly, and his heart felt as if it had been hammered by a giant drum.
"Stop. At this moment, an urgent sound came from far and near. "Dad, if you want to kill him, kill me first. ”
"Fei'er, what are you doing here, it's none of your business here, don't retreat. ”
"No, I'm his wife, and no matter what happens, I'm not going to leave him. Dad, those things will never be done by heaven. Even if your daughter begs you, you can let him go!"
"Bastard, now that the evidence is conclusive, are you still defending him? I don't have your daughter, and if I don't let go of it, I don't blame the father for being ruthless. ”
"Daddy. Feng'er is still young, he can't live without his father!"
"Get out of the way. ”
"No!"
Memories are like heart-piercing poison, causing Long Zhan's heart and lungs to suffer severe pain. The old man inadvertently moved his fingers, and the pen in his hand snapped.
"Hands-on. ”
"Wait. One person does things and one person is responsible. Valley master, I will give you an explanation. Long Fei is your daughter after all, I hope you see that Feng'er is still young, don't embarrass their mother and son. ”
"Tianxing, what are you doing...."
"Fei'er, I'm sorry! I hurt you and our children. Promise me that you will never let him practice martial arts! As soon as he enters the rivers and lakes, he is as deep as the sea, and I don't want our children to be like me. ”
"Tianxing...."
"Father-in-law, if it weren't for you, I would have died long ago. I'll give you an explanation today. Hahaha.... Yikes...."
The long knife pierced through the chamber, and the tragic blood sprinkled all around, and the hero's reluctance and heartache could not be exhausted! The child's cry in his mind, like a lingering invisible spell, made Long Zhan almost suffocate! He slowly opened his eyes, and couldn't help touching the empty right sleeve with his lonely left hand. The past is like a cloud, and until this moment facing the surroundings of the study, he still can't tell which one is real and which one is illusory.
"After so many years, your wish back then was that you didn't want Feng'er to set foot in the path of cultivation. I couldn't stop this child until the end! I didn't expect this child to be able to bear eight years of grievances for a promise! Tianxing, Tianxing, he is worthy of being the child of you and Fei'er, they are all so stubborn. ”
Long Zhan couldn't help but sigh after saying something to himself, he put one hand behind him and came to the side window. Gently pushing open the window and looking at the scenery outside, there are countless emotions in my heart.
At that moment, there was a cautious knock on the door of the study. Long Zhan turned around and said casually, "Come in." ”
A subordinate respectfully pushed open the door and walked in, saying, "Gu Master, Wu Feng is asking to see you outside, saying that he has something important to tell Gu Lord!"
"Well, I know, you go down first!"
"Yes. ”
The subordinate left, Long Zhan was a little curious in his heart, what was Wu Feng doing at this time? That day, this kid made an agreement with Elder Bai, saying that he would kill the five-colored demon spider in the Wild Beast Forest within ten days. It's the seventh day, and he's not moving. At first, I thought that the child's blood was surging that day, so I agreed angrily. After all, it's just a child, and the so-called newborn calf is not afraid of tigers, and it's all about teenagers like him.
Walking out of his study, the first thing Long Zhan saw when he came to the main hall was Wu Feng, who was waiting for him on his knees.
"Wu Feng, get up, if you have anything to say, just say it. ”
Long Zhan sat on the seat next to him and said in a calm tone. Looking at Wu Feng, Long Zhan unconsciously felt a heartache in his heart! In fact, he understood that it was a connection from the bloodline, but out of consideration of his own identity, he had to secretly bury this heartache in his heart.
"Valley master, Feng'er has something to ask for, and I hope that the valley master must agree. If you don't agree, Feng'er would rather kneel for a long time!" Wu Feng said without getting up.
That resolute look and that stubborn temper, in Long Zhan's eyes, are completely the same as the reproduction of this stinky boy's father before his death.
"Good boy, I just got the cultivation of the mind method not long ago, how.... Now you don't take me, the valley master, in your eyes? You have even learned to threaten? Hmph, you can kneel if you want to, I won't care. But from this day forward, you will not set foot in my mansion again. ”
After speaking, Long Zhan got up and wanted to leave! Wu Feng was in a hurry when he saw this, and he couldn't help but secretly curse himself for making Long Zhan angry. I want to live in the valley for many years as a sinful body, if it were not for the kindness of the valley master, how could I be where I am today?
Seeing that Long Zhan was about to go away, Wu Feng hurriedly got up and said eagerly: "Gu Master, don't go.... Wu Feng knew that he was wrong. Please also ask the valley owner to agree to this matter, otherwise.... Otherwise, it would be difficult for Wu Feng to go to the Beast Forest with peace of mind. ”
Hearing this, Long Zhan chuckled in his heart. He stopped abruptly, turned around and said, "What, you've really decided to go to the Beast Forest?"
Wu Feng nodded and said, "Since you have agreed, how can you regret it?" Valley Lord, life and death in the Wild Beast Forest are unpredictable. Wu Feng hopes that before he goes, he can erect a tombstone for my parents to show his filial piety. ”
Since the death of his father Wu Tianxing, he was buried in the loess, because of his deep sins, his mother Long Fei could not even erect a decent tombstone. Eight years ago, his mother died of illness and was buried with his father, but he was unable to erect a monument! This incident entangled Wu Feng's heart and lingered.
The misfortune of going to the Wild Beast Forest is unpredictable, and Wu Feng said that he would ask the valley master Long Zhan to agree to his request. Otherwise, how could he be the Son of Man?
Looking at Wu Feng's eyes, Long Zhan was silent. The two looked at each other and couldn't say a word for a long time. After being silent for a long time, Long Zhan took a deep breath and said heavily, "Is it really decided?"
Wu Feng nodded and said, "Gu Master, although my father is deeply guilty. But as a son of man, I have worked hard in the valley for many years. Now go to the Wild Beast Forest to kill the five-colored demon spider, whether it is successful or not, it can be regarded as fighting for my Forgotten Sorrow Valley. I also asked the valley lord to be gracious and fulfilled my last wish. ”
Long Zhan's heart ached, like being pricked by a needle. This child has suffered for many years, is this really the last goodbye?
"That's it.... Since so many years have passed, there is no need to pursue it too much. Your ancestors have passed away, and since you want to erect a monument for your parents, go ahead!"
Long Zhan waved his hand lightly at Wu Feng and said no more, Wu Feng was ecstatic after hearing this. couldn't help but kneel on the ground again with a pop, and kowtowed three times in a row at Long Zhan.
The young man had tears in his eyes, but he resisted it and did not let it fall. He raised his head, looked at Long Zhan, and opened his mouth as if he was about to say something, but when the words came to his mouth, he was swallowed back hard.
The two were silent, there was a dead silence all around, and Wu Feng slowly stood up and turned away. Long Zhan suddenly looked at Wu Feng's back again, and opened his mouth to speak, but he couldn't say anything out loud, only a soft voice floated out of his mouth: "Outside... Grandson. And the young man had already walked out of the room at this moment and disappeared into Long Zhan's eyes.
A lonely grave in the distance, isolated in the wind. Wu Feng slowly came to the burial place of his parents. He carried a stone tablet on his shoulder, and was walking towards the lonely grave step by step. When he saw that he was about to arrive, he found that there seemed to be a person standing proudly in front of the lonely grave.
Wu Feng was slightly startled, and unconsciously quickened his pace. When he got closer, he saw the man standing with his hands in his hands, and his blue robe fluttering in the wind.
"Uncle Zuo?" Seeing the person's appearance clearly, he saw that it was a middle-aged man, and his eyebrows burst with heroism. He had two mustaches above his upper lip, giving his angular cheeks a much more mature masculinity.
This person's name is Zuo Qingkong, and he is the master of the Qinglongmen Gate of the Forgotten Worry Valley, ranking first among the four major gate masters! The skill is so high that he has reached the stage of returning to the state of mind! This person's martial arts are profound, even though his skill is still in the realm of returning to the heart, but the comprehensive assessment definitely belongs to the peak existence of this level. The strength is not even inferior to some masters in the early stage of the Xuanzong Realm.
Wu Feng was very familiar with him, and when his mother was alive, he often came to visit his home. Although his family is a sinner in the Valley of Forgetfulness, Zuo Qingtian has never taken it seriously. He doesn't care about the eyes of others at all, and takes good care of his mother and himself.
"Come and see your parents. Well, this is ..... on your shoulder."
Wu Feng was silent, put down the tombstone on his shoulder, and pressed the tombstone firmly in front of the lonely grave with a palm. Zuo Qingtian was slightly startled, and couldn't help but light up. I saw that the inscription on it was neat and clean, and the strokes were not carved out with tools, but more like someone wrote them with their fingers.
For many years, this lonely grave has been without a monument. But this time, Wu Feng suddenly carried a piece, and saw that the tombstone was clearly written with the six words "unfilial son Wu Fengli", and every stroke was inexhaustible sadness, but it was difficult for others to see.
Zuo Qingkong couldn't help but sigh with emotion, and said: "Unfilial son, what a sentence of unfilial son! It's been fourteen years, and your mother resolutely opposed you stepping into the path of cultivation. Since her death, you have begged the valley lord to endure for eight years. In the end, these still can't stop you, and they still make you get the cultivation method. Wu Feng, why are you so stubborn? Isn't it good to be an ordinary person?"
Wu Feng slowly knelt in front of the grave, knocked three heads heavily, and said in a gentle tone: "Wu Feng has three unfilial pieties in his life. First, I disobeyed my parents' orders and insisted on stepping into the path of cultivation; second, after my parents' death, it was difficult to erect inscriptions, and I could only fulfill my responsibilities as a son of man until today; third, my parents were wronged and humiliated, but I could only endure and could not resist. The sky can be seen, I, Wu Feng, swear to the sky that I will find out the truth of the year and give my father Wu Tianxing justice. ”
Hearing this, Zuo Qingkong frowned slightly, and said, "Wu Feng, do you think everyone is wronging your father?"
Wu Feng's eyes moved, and he said, "Uncle Zuo, I have heard my mother say a thing or two about what happened back then. There must be something hidden in it, and I don't believe my dad is what they say. In any case, I will definitely investigate it thoroughly. ”
So many years have passed since the investigation was carried out, what could we find out even if there were really other hidden secrets? Zuo Qingkong shook his head helplessly, and sighed: "Wu Feng, the matter has come to this, why are you so persistent?"
With a miserable smile, Wu Feng said: "After all these years, how many people can understand my mother's hardships? Uncle Zuo, you don't need to persuade me anymore, I have made up my mind." Tomorrow I will go to the Beast Forest to slay the five-colored demon spider and fulfill my promise to Elder Bai. ”
"What!" Zuo Qingkong exclaimed, "Are you serious?" Stinky boy, do you know how dangerous the Beast Forest is. That's not at all...."
Without waiting for Zuo Qingtian to finish speaking, Wu Feng interrupted: "I know, but this is also my only way out." At that time, everyone thought that my father had committed a great crime, and if I wanted to be a father of justice, I had to get everyone's approval first. The matter of the Wild Beast Forest is imperative. ”
Saying this, Wu Feng's resolute gaze became even hotter. Zuo Qingkong shook his head helplessly, he knew that no matter how much he persuaded him, it would be useless, so he had to sigh and turn away.
"It's your choice of what path you want to take, but I still want you to think about it. It's not easy to live, your father and your mother only have a son like you. ”
Zuo Qingtian strolled away, leaving only a sigh lingering in Wu Feng's ears. The boy's fists tightened, and only the clenched kaka rattled.
He stared at the lonely grave in front of him for a long time, and his heart was determined that he would never waver.
"Dad, mother, the child is gone!" After a long time, Wu Feng got up and left.
In the shade of the trees in the distance, Qu Ling saw all this scene in his eyes. The girl's eyes were murderous, and the slender five fingers of her right hand seemed to have caught the bark of the tree!
"Wu Feng, your life can only be mine. I'm not going to let you die in the Beast Forest for nothing. ”
