Stepping into the Zhong Mansion, Zhong Yi's heart was a little excited, what Zhong Yi wanted to do most now was to go to his father and tell his father that he could already cultivate, and he was already a one-star Xuanshi.

"Xiaoyi, I'm back. Just as Zhong Yi was rushing towards home, a rough voice sounded behind Zhong Yi.

Zhong Yi looked back and saw a relatively strong middle-aged man, dressed in black clothes, carrying a black giant sword on his back, with a stern appearance, giving people a sense of might, seeing him, Zhong Yi was surprised: "Third uncle, when did you come back." ”

Zhong Yi's third uncle is named Zhong Yunfei, and he is Zhong Yuncheng's third brother, although the name sounds quite chic, but he doesn't quite match this name.

"It's been a big family competition in the last few days, and the recent matter has been dealt with almost completely, and I'll be back today. Looking at Zhong Yi, Zhong Yunfei put away his stern expression and smiled.

Zhong Yi also smiled and said, "Third uncle, you really don't come back often, how long are you going to stay this time?"

"I'm going back when the family competition is over, although the recent things have been dealt with almost enough, but there are still a lot of external things. Zhong Yunfei said.

Zhong Yi nodded, and said with a little regret: "That's a pity, I can't stay for a while, by the way, you've met my father." In the family, Zhong Yi knows that only the third uncle has a good relationship with his father, and every time the third uncle comes back, he will go to his father's yard to chat with his father and drink a few glasses of wine, but Zhong Yi has never seen anyone visit his father.

Zhong Yunfei said: "Of course I have seen it, by the way, your father seems to have something to say to you, go back quickly, and come to my house to sit down when you have time." ”

"Uh-huh. Looking at the back of Zhong Yunfei turning away, Zhong Yi couldn't help but feel a little lonely, the third uncle Zhong Yunfei is also one of the few people who is better to himself now, but I heard that he had a dispute with the family because of an ordinary woman when he was young, and finally for some reason, the woman died, and he was also sent to the family's external property to take care of it, and only had a little time to come back to see, it was pitiful, his beloved died, and he was also alienated by the family, probably because of the relationship without children, Zhong Yunfei has always treated Zhong Yi as his own child。

"My father must have something important looking for me. Thinking of the third uncle's words, Zhong Yi thought in his heart, and then walked home.

After passing through the bamboo forest, he arrived at Zhong Yi's house, and when he walked into the yard, he saw his father taking care of his violet, I don't know why, Zhong Yi felt that his father at this time seemed to be different from usual, and there was a trace of sadness between his eyebrows.

"Father, I heard that the third uncle said that you have something to do with me?" Zhong Yi said softly as he approached a little closer, he knew that his father would be very careful and serious every time he took care of these violets.

Zhong Yuncheng put down the kettle in his hand, turned around and walked towards the house, "Come in", Zhong Yuncheng said calmly, as if there was no important matter at all.

"Yes. ”

Zhong Yi nodded and followed Zhong Yuncheng into the house.

Walking into the house, Zhong Yuncheng looked at a bamboo painting hanging on the wall, with a look of memory on his face.

Sighing softly, Zhong Yuncheng turned his head to look at Zhong Yi, "It's already Xuanshi, it looks like you've passed the first level." ”

Zhong Yi was stunned for a moment, wondering how his father knew, but he immediately replied: "Yes, father, I have already passed the first level." ”

Zhong Yuncheng shook his head slowly, and said softly, "Actually, I didn't want you to cultivate. ”

Zhong Yi was stunned, he didn't understand, why didn't his father want to cultivate by himself? And that piece of inheritance jade, what was going on? There were many doubts, Zhong Yi just wanted to ask clearly.

Zhong Yuncheng seemed to know Zhong Yi's question, and slowly turned around, "You should have a lot of doubts, do you want to know?"

Zhong Yi nodded, "Although I don't understand and have a lot of doubts, I believe that no matter what my father does, he has his own reasons." Zhong Yi always knew that no matter what his father did, he would not harm himself.

Looking at the flashing gaze in Zhong Yi's eyes, Zhong Yuncheng's face couldn't help but show a trace of remembrance, "Your eyes are exactly the same as your mother." ”

"My mother ......" Zhong Yi's heart trembled slightly, he had never seen his mother since he was a child, and he also asked his father, but no matter how he asked, there was no result. He had asked a lot of people, but no one knew, as if there had never been such a person.

With a sigh, Zhong Yuncheng said, "Go ahead, get the first place in the family competition, and I may tell you the answer." ”

"Family competition?" Zhong Yi also knew that the family competition would be held in the next few days, this was an annual event of the Zhong family, and the younger generation of the Zhong family between the ages of twelve and twenty could participate, but Zhong Yi did not participate in the first two sessions, because he couldn't cultivate at all, but now it is different, he is already a mystery, such strength, among the younger generation of the family, there are not a few, and he has the strength to compete for the first place.

"Now that you have decided to take the path of cultivation, then go to the peak, this big competition is your starting point, prove to me that you are qualified to have the Jade of Inheritance. Zhong Yunfei said calmly, then turned around and walked out of the house, looking at his back, Zhong Yi seemed to feel endless loneliness and loneliness, making Zhong Yi faintly feel a trace of strangeness.

"I'm going to get first and then I'll know everything. Zhong Yi thought silently in his heart.

Under Zhong Yi's gaze, Zhong Yuncheng's pace stopped slightly, and as soon as his hand was raised, a green light flew in. A token, the whole body is green, engraved with a big "order" word.

"Family Master Order!" Zhong Yi was slightly shocked in his heart, he had seen this token in his father's hand before, this was a token representing the identity of the Zhong family's family head.

"There are still ten days to go, take the family master's order to go to the martial arts pavilion to choose a few suitable martial arts. As Zhong Yuncheng walked away, the voice came slowly.

"Father..."Zhong Yi's heart moved slightly.

"If I'm not mistaken, the registration office should be in the martial arts training ground in the outer courtyard. Zhong Yi thought in his heart that he should first sign up now.

Walking through the bamboo forest, Zhong Yi didn't understand very much, why there are so many bamboos in the family? The Zhong family is divided into two courtyards, the outer courtyard is very ordinary, but I don't know why, all the plants in the inner courtyard of the Zhong family are bamboo, and in his father's house, there is also a picture of bamboo painted on the front wall, does his father like bamboo very much? And that piece of violet, my father doesn't seem to be a person who likes to raise flowers, is it because of my mother? Thinking of this, Zhong Yi couldn't help but tremble slightly, Zhong Yi had never seen his mother since he was a child, and he had always been very concerned about his mother's affairs, but no one had ever mentioned a little news about his mother, in fact, what the fourteen-year-old Zhong Yi longed for the most was just to see his mother.

Putting away his thoughts, Zhong Yi understood that the most important thing now should be to win the first place in the family competition.
