Chapter 36: Who's Green?
'Ergou Daddy is green?'
'Or is the second dog's mother green?'
Chu Qiguang stared at the name on the bamboo chip, and his heart was full of thoughts for a while, and countless possibilities swarmed in, but he kept ruling them out.
He took a deep breath, looked at his mother and asked, "Am I not your own?"
The mother spat out: "What are you talking nonsense!"
Zhou Bai asked, "Our family...... Shouldn't it be surnamed Zhou?"
Ergou's mother said: "I don't know the specifics, but I heard your father say that the Zhou family should have been surnamed Chu." ”
Chu Qiguang asked: "Does my father want me to change my name? But in the household registration book in the yamen, my name is still Tuesday dog, right? Then I have to go to the yamen to change my name?"
What he was thinking in his heart was that in the future, he would need to verify his household registration if he took the martial arts examination and became an official, so what would be the point of just verbally changing his name to Chu Qiguang?
Ergou's mother said: "Your father said that in his early years, he once bought off the scribes in the yamen and gave you a fictitious household registration in Wangjiazhuang, and there was only one Chu Qiguang who was the same age as you in that household, and you can use this name in the future." ”
Chu Qiguang was even more surprised when he heard this, he knew that in the household registration system of the Great Han Dynasty, the four types of widows, widows and lonely families did not have to pay taxes and serve conscription.
The so-called widowhood and loneliness are old men without wives, old women without husbands, young children without fathers and mothers, and old people without children.
And Chu Qiguang, who was made by Ergou's father, is such a fictitious household, obviously a young fatherless and motherless child, who does not have to pay taxes or serve, and in the past ten years, Chu Qiguang, a non-existent person, has been living in the register like this.
And this turned out to be an arrangement made by Ergou's father more than ten years ago.
A strange feeling rose from his mind.
Chu Qiguang nodded and asked some more questions, but he could feel that Ergou's mother really didn't know the inside story, and more secrets may have been known by Ergou's father, but Ergou's father and brother had already disappeared when they went up the mountain to chop wood.
So Chu Qiguang was silent on the surface, and just told the mother of the second dog, but there were many doubts in his heart.
He walked out of the house and happened to see Qiao Zhi who was teaching Jinxiu face-to-face, so he asked, "Master Qiao, Chu Qiguang is this ......?"
Before Chu Qiguang finished speaking, Qiao Zhi said directly: "Do you want to change your name, change it, Chu Qiguang's name is better than Ergou, and changing your name can also cover your mother and sister, and you won't be sought revenge in the future." ”
Chu Qiguang glanced at Qiao Zhi strangely, and directly took the bamboo piece in the wooden box to the other party to see: "It's not that I want to change it, it's my father's ......"
Qiao Zhi listened to the matter of Xuhu Chu Qiguang, but his eyes widened more and more, and he paced back and forth with an incredible expression, and exclaimed in his heart: "Impossible. ’
'Obviously, it shouldn't be like this, it should be Chu Qiguang's own name and household registration. ’
'How did it become that his father helped him change it?'
Chu Qiguang looked at Qiao Zhi, who was panicked, and combined with what the other party had just said, he already had a plan in his heart, so he asked directly, "Is it different from what you know?"
"Uh......" Qiao Zhi thought for a moment, and then shook his head firmly: "Your father should never know the name Chu Qiguang. ”
The more he thought about it, the more flustered he became, Qiao Zhi quickly licked his calm hair to calm himself down.
Chu Qiguang on the other side planned to start investigating the disappearance of Ergou's father and eldest brother, and when he heard his plan, Qiao Zhi sighed: "I was afraid that this matter would affect your cultivation of Dao Arts, so I didn't tell you." Now it seems that it is impossible to say no. ”
"You people...... It was sent by the King Kong Temple in history to guard the classics, and his surname was Chu. ”
"It's just that 50 years ago, the imperial court shot to 'destroy Buddhism', and even suppressed the three major schools of Moko Buddhism, Fanjing Sect, and King Kong Temple. It's just that each generation of family heads has been passed down from generation to generation, and they continue to guard the classic book of Kongo Temple. ”
"It's a pity that your father and eldest brother encountered gangsters when they went into the mountains to check the preservation of the classics, and not only were they killed, but the classics were also taken away. ”
"Originally, I had already buried the two of them, because I was worried that after knowing the revenge of killing my father, it would affect your cultivation, so I wanted to hide it from you for the time being. ”
Chu Qiguang listened to Qiao Zhi's story, and a complicated thought surged in his heart.
It stands to reason that he thinks that he is Chu Qiguang from the earth, and he should have no feelings for the family of the second dog in this world.
But Ergou's incomparably strong and incomparably deep memories that were deep in his mind would subconsciously affect him, making him feel a trace of sadness and anger.
Call~~
Chu Qiguang exhaled deeply: "Then who killed them?"
"Do you want revenge?" Qiao Zhi sighed: "I didn't want to tell you so early, just because I was worried about affecting your state of mind and reducing the effectiveness of your martial arts cultivation." Martial arts to surrender qi and blood, cultivation to grasp the primordial spirit, both of which are the most focused, and a trace of unharmony will become an obstacle for you. ”
Chu Qiguang closed his eyes when he heard this, and when he opened his eyes again, it seemed that all his worries and distracting thoughts had been forcibly suppressed.
"Then wait for me to meditate overnight, and tell me tomorrow. ”
That night, Chu Qiguang tried his best to remain calm while meditating, he wanted to eliminate the interference of Ergou's memory, so that the death of Ergou's father and eldest brother would not affect his cultivation progress.
But no matter how he meditated, he always felt a little different from the previous awkwardness.
Tuesday dog's memories kept coming back to his mind, and his reason told him that these two people had nothing to do with him, don't think about it. But the deep memories kept triggering all kinds of emotions in his heart.
This kind of memory, which does not belong to him, but profoundly affects his emotional state, as if there are two people fighting in his head, makes Chu Qiguang gradually anxious.
Finally, he opened his eyes, stopped meditating, and directly began to practice martial arts, casting a set of Heavenly Spirit Forging Body Fist.
But while performing his boxing techniques, he couldn't help but have memories in his mind, which affected his efficiency in martial arts.
"The efficiency of martial arts and cultivation has an impact, but the key is that the efficiency of meditation is low, which means that I have to spend more time resting every day and less time for exercise. ”
Chu Qiguang shook his head helplessly, and thought in his heart: "Memory is an important part of personality, and it has a huge impact on people's feelings, concepts, and ideas. Unless I can completely clean up Ergou's memory, it is impossible not to be affected. ’
Since there is no escape, it can only be solved completely. ’
Chu Qiguang picked up Qiao Zhi on the side and touched it, feeling that his mind calmed down a little, and then he asked, "Only when I take revenge can my state of mind return to peace, right?"
Qiao Zhi said: "Either take revenge and pay tribute to your father, eldest brother's spirit in the sky." Either you just continue to meditate, grind little by little, and eventually be able to ignore the influence. ”
Qiao Zhi sighed: "The so-called life in the world is unsatisfactory nine times out of ten. Most people can only continue to cultivate with thorns in their hearts, so the longer they roll in the red dust, the more thorns they have in their hearts, and the slower the efficiency of their cultivation tends to be.
Only then will some people escape into the deep mountains and old forests to escape from the world and practice. ”
Chu Qiguang nodded, but evasion and patience were not his style, and he asked directly, "Who am I going to seek revenge?"
