Chapter 379: Hungry (Glowing Confusion)
This is a world full of oriental atmosphere, the Longhua Continent. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 info
Ongoing war continues in this divided land.
Ambition, revenge, protection, oaths.
There are so many reasons for people to take up arms and fight.
For the fourteen-year-old, there was only one reason for her to fight.
"Eat well...... And then live. ”
"I have taught many disciples to fight for such reasons...... You're still the first. ”
Mo Youyan, an octogenarian with the name of [Spear God], stroked his long white beard and stared at Yingfu who knelt at his feet.
Originally a cardamom-like age, she didn't have the temperament of a girl at all, she was skinny, with a yellow face and thin muscles, just like that, holding a weapon shaped like a spear, and under the ragged clothes, you could see the festering wounds stained red with blood.
"I haven't learned any gunnery before...... can rely on such a weapon to enter the valley where the old man lives in seclusion...... Your talent has been witnessed. For your sake...... The old man will make an exception and admit you, a closed disciple, again. ”
Mo Youyan smiled and helped Ying Qi up, and handed a large piece of beef wrapped in his sleeve to Ying Yu, the girl didn't say a word, grabbed the beef jerky and began to chew it.
Glowing ...... No family.
Originally living in a county town with her parents and five siblings, she was hit by the war and years of drought, and her father, who was originally just a footman, had to enlist in the army, never to return. Ying's mother was valued by a wealthy local gentry, and finally hanged herself to death after doing everything she could. In order to avoid being chased by the angry rich gentry, Ying's brother and five siblings began a life of exile.
It is better to be a peace dog than a troubled world.
These helpless children soon died one by one due to illness and hunger.
"Glitter - I'm hungry, isn't it? You wait here, and my brother will go get you something to eat. ”
The eldest brother, who was also hungry, saw that his only remaining sister was almost on the verge of starvation, and he couldn't help but make up his mind to set his sights on a liquor shop on the street—the most prosperous restaurant in the town, and in this era, only the surrounding elites were allowed to enter.
"Hide here, and don't make a sound until whatever happens, understand, Yingchao!"
The girl, whose eyes were glazed, nodded as if she didn't understand.
Then she heard a series of shouting and beating.
She saw her brother curled up as a group of men kicked to the ground in a flurry of punches and kicks.
"Brother...... Brother ......"
Glowing whimpered and was about to step forward, but was stopped by the fierce light emanating from his brother's blood-blurred eyes—the way he muttered was an absolute command to his sister to "don't come closer".
After a desperate memory, Glowing whimpered and crawled to the middle of the road—and by this time, her brother had only one breath left.
"Na...... Brother-"
The elder brother trembled and took out two steamed buns from his bosom: the steamed buns had become filthy from the squeezing and the drenching of blood—but even so, Yingyu showed no resistance; With tears in her eyes, she whimpered, and bit down the crumpled bloody steamed bun with tears in her eyes.
"Delicious...... Glowing. ”
The elder brother stroked his sleek red hair, and his vision gradually blurred.
"By all means...... You must live well. ”
Ying was awakened by her brother's call.
Brother......
Sleeping on the bamboo bed, Yingfu no longer remembers—how many days have passed when she has been woken up by her brother.
Not good...... Master also-
After Yingyu changed into new clothes and went out, she met Master Mo Youyan under the waterfall near the hut in the woods.
He was standing on the top of a bamboo, his eyes closed, listening to the sound of the wind, the sound of the bamboo forest, and the rapids of the waterfall.
"It's too late......"
"Sorry...... Master, I—"
"It doesn't matter. Run from the top of the mountain to the bottom of the mountain and come back to see me. Mo Youyan said this coldly.
"Understood!" Glowing didn't have any opinion on this, and immediately threw away what he had in his hand and began to run down the mountain.
"This kid ......"
Even the well-informed Mo Youyan couldn't help but be shocked.
By the time she returned from the run, it was already dusk.
"Sorry...... Master, I-" While Yingyu was still feeling guilty that his speed was too slow, Mo Youyan had already lit a bonfire at the agreed location.
"Today's practice is over, let's eat."
A row of various game meat is skewered on the grill. Mr. Mo Da, who lives in seclusion in the mountains and forests, has his own set of joy in life.
"Hmm!" Yingfu didn't see it, wiped the sweat from his face and sat down cross-legged.
Mo Youyan has taught more than 70 disciples so far, each disciple is either dominating the rivers and lakes or dominating the martial arts, even if they enter the officialdom, they are all generals who dominate the party, when they will be asked by Mo Youyan about the goal of practicing martial arts, everyone in order to gain favor on the teacher's side, all of them are righteous and awe-inspiring words such as protecting the family and defending the country, eliminating violence and peace, Mo Youyan didn't say anything about it, but this group of people often go down the mountain very early; Later, some people began to look for Mo Youyan's temperament, and decided to directly tell the truth about the purpose of the battle -- to dominate one side, to become famous, to become richer, and all kinds of reasons came up one after another -- but this group of people who told the truth stayed for a longer time, and their achievements were much higher than those of the previous batch.
But there are always some suspicious guys in this group of people, they are afraid that the disciples taught by Mo Youyan will be stronger than themselves in the future, which will affect their competitiveness in the world, so they have joined forces, in the name of giving back to the teacher, they want to take Mo Youyan home to support, but Mo Youyan has long since ceased to live in the hermitage, but has gone to another place; The glow will find here, or get a certain chance.
"Master...... used to be a big hero," under the bonfire, Yingfu talked about some past events - at that time, Mo Youyan's first batch of disciples entered the rivers and lakes, although they failed to achieve great achievements like the master [Gun God], but they also eliminated violence and peace in various places, and did some good deeds that were praised, when Yingyan was very young, the family was attacked by robbers on the road, and it was the disciples under Mo Youyan's name who rescued them.
"But...... Everybody will say that the most proud disciples of my disciples are not the ones with the best reputations—do you know why? ”
Ying Yu shook her head - with her identity, she would not come into contact with those big people at the level of heads and generals at all.
"Only the one who has a clearer goal...... to have more talents; In this way, they will not be left with irreparable regrets because of their lack of understanding of their own abilities. ”
"So...... Yingqiu, who only wants to eat a full meal, can she always be by Master's side? Ying Chao wiped her mouth full of oil and asked--Although she had only been here for a few days, Ying Yu had already completely regarded her as her own elder--The girl who had gone through countless hardships, as long as someone treated her a little better, she would open her heart to thank each other.
"Yingfu......" Mo Youyan paused slightly, "I probably won't stay long, and the teacher will drive you down the mountain." ”
"Mom...... Why? ”
"You ate all the chicken wings that you worked so hard to bake for your teacher, and you didn't leave anything for your teacher."
