Chapter 69: Luo Xing
It's spring again, and the birds are flying happily in the town, and sometimes they will land on the eaves and chirp.
The sun had just fully revealed, and the abundant sunlight sprinkled the entire Qinghe Town with a layer of golden light.
In a house on the west side of the town, a sturdy boy in a patched coat was climbing on a huge willow tree outside the walls of the house, and soon his height exceeded the courtyard wall, and he could see the open windows in the house, and a teenager seemed to be drawing something on the desk, and the young man who climbed the tree approached the window with the branches of the willow tree into the courtyard.
If the tree climbing boy goes further, you can see that the painting boy is a mighty man, holding a child, and knocking a demon beast away with a punch.
After a few brushstrokes, the painting boy put down the brush in his hand, looked at the painting very melancholy, and sighed long.
"Luo Xing, Luo Xing. ”
The tree-climbing boy shouted in a low voice, as if he was afraid that others would find out.
The painting boy saw surprise in the eyes of the sturdy boy on the tree, and even shouted in a low voice: "Da Zhuang, are you coming to play with me?"
The young man named Da Zhuang shook his head, smiled and took out a piece of paper in the shape of yellow paper from his arms, kneaded it into a ball, and with a hey, the paper ball crossed the window and landed in the house.
"What is this?" Luo Xing asked suspiciously, and then picked up the paper ball from the ground.
"God of War Academy Admissions!" Luo Xing's face suddenly showed excitement, and his eyes were even brighter.
The God of War Academy is the only place in Great Zhou to teach cultivators, and it is known as the three major academies in the Eastern Continent along with the Death God Academy of Great Shang and the Martial Saint Academy of Great Xia.
"I know you've always wanted to become a cultivator, so when I saw this notice, I'll be looking for you right away!" Da Zhuang said with a low chuckle.
The smile on Luo Xing's face didn't last long, and he said leisurely: "Da Zhuang, I'm afraid I won't be able to go, my parents don't want me to be a cultivator." ”
Da Zhuang paused for a moment, then jumped into the courtyard, climbed into the house through the window, and said solemnly with a small face: "Luo Xing, are you really not going? You are already fifteen years old, and the maximum age for enrollment in the God of War Academy is also fifteen years old, that is to say, if you miss this opportunity, you will never be able to enter the God of War Academy again." ”
"I also know, but my father and mother really hate me being a cultivator, and even when I want to see the street performing and boxing, my father and mother directly call me back. Luo Xing smiled bitterly.
"Why did your father and mother reject you so much as a cultivator? You were almost killed by a demon beast when you were a child, if it wasn't for the cultivator who saved you, you would have died a long time ago, it stands to reason that your father and mother should be very grateful to the cultivator!" Da Zhuang wondered.
"Yes, I don't understand, because of that incident, I have always dreamed of being a powerful cultivator, able to protect others from being harmed by demon beasts, but my father and mother just don't like it. Luo Xing also showed a distressed expression.
"I heard that Lei Yang is ready to leave, this kid has been refining his qi and blood, it is said that the strength of his arms has reached seven or eight hundred catties, and he will be able to enter the body realm soon, and it is basically no problem to enter the God of War Academy this time. Da Zhuang said a message.
Lei Yang is the young master of the rich man in this town, and Luo Xing's family sells the four treasures of the study, and he is also a rich family in the town.
Therefore, Luo Xing and Lei Yang have been studying in a private school since they were children, but Luo Xing has been smart since he was a child, coupled with the influence of his parents, and his reading performance is very good, so he was quickly recognized and loved by the teachers.
Compared with Luo Xingyi, Lei Yang is simply a typical little bully in the private school, not only is he not good at studying, but he is also very naughty, burning the teacher's beard, throwing snakes, insects, rats and ants into his classmate's bookbag, and once even hinged a female classmate's braid, and dared to do anything.
Once Luo Xing couldn't stand it, so he told the teacher about it, and the result was naturally that Lei Yang was criticized by the teacher, and since then, Lei Yang has hated Luo Xing and opposed Luo Xing everywhere.
Luo Xing nodded and said with a smile: "Lei Yang has always wanted to be a cultivator, I know it, I really envy him! I hope he can realize his dream." ”
"Alas, you are so kind, he is against you everywhere, and you bless him. People like him who know that bullying the weak have the opportunity to become cultivators, but you are such a good person, but you can only look at it, is it true that good people are not rewarded?" Da Zhuang was upset for Luo Xing, and said angrily.
Luo Xing smiled bitterly and shook his head.
"If you hadn't always stolen something to eat, I would have starved to death, but you have something to do, and I can't do anything, Luo Xing, is my Ye Long really a wreck?" Da Zhuang blamed himself.
Da Zhuang's original name was Ye Long, his father Ye Zhenguang was a very ordinary villager in the town, and his mother died when he was three years old, so Ye Zhenguang continued the strings very early, and soon had a pair of dragon and phoenix fetuses born.
And since Ye Long's younger siblings were born, Ye Long has become dispensable in this family, not only his stepmother is extremely mean to him, but even his father thinks he can eat, every time he eats, he waits for the whole family to eat some leftovers, and sometimes, Ye Long can't even eat leftovers.
Not only that, Ye Long has almost become a slave at home, and he has to do everything in the family.
Three years ago, Ye Long's younger brothers and sisters were clamoring to go to private school, and his stepmother asked Ye Long to chop wood and sell money every day.
And that time was actually Ye Long chopping firewood for three days and three nights in a row, and he didn't rest, plus he couldn't eat enough, so he fainted, and it was also because of that incident that Luo Xing met Ye Long.
Luo Xing felt that Ye Long could still be so good to his younger brothers and sisters in the face of such unfair treatment, which showed that this person had a good heart. Therefore, Luo Xing thought that Ye Long was a friend who could be deeply made, so from then on, he often brought food to Ye Long, and also taught Ye Long to read and write, hoping that he could also get ahead one day.
All along, Luo Xing didn't feel that he had done much for Ye Long, because he regarded Ye Long as a friend, and he thought it should be.
"This has nothing to do with you at all!" Luo Xing smiled bitterly.
"I ......" Ye Long was still very self-blaming, but suddenly saw the shadow on the ground, and his expression changed, "Luo Xing, I'm going to chop wood, I can't tell you, otherwise my stepmother will be angry again." ”
Saying that, Ye Long was about to leave along the window, and Luo Xing saw this and said, "You wait!"
Luo Xing found a silk handkerchief to wrap the pastries on the table, then handed it to Ye Long and said, "You are not allowed to give your younger brothers and sisters to eat this time, you will starve to death, and they will not look at it." ”
Luo Xing's parents were very kind to him, and often bought him a lot of pastries, some of which were difficult to buy in small towns, and he had to go to the county town.
Luo Xing often brings some pastries to Ye Long, because this thing is much easier to take than food, but Luo Xing didn't expect that Ye Long was reluctant to eat it, so he gave it to his younger brothers and sisters, but his younger brothers and sisters were really not things, not only did he not appreciate him, but also told Ye Long's stepmother, saying that Ye Long was secretly hiding delicious food, which caused Ye Long to suffer a severe beating.
From then on, when Luo Xing gave Ye Long something, he had to tell him not to give it to his younger brothers and sisters.
"yes, I see!"
Ye Long nodded, hesitated for a moment, and said without giving up: "Luo Xing, I still hope you don't give up, if a kind-hearted person like you can become a cultivator, then more people will benefit." ”
"I, I'll talk to my parents. Luo Xing pondered for a moment and nodded.
In the evening, the Luo family hall.
Luo Xing and his parents were eating around the dining table, Luo Xing kept sweeping his eyes at his parents, but he couldn't open his mouth.
Luo Xing's father, Luo Guan, smiled: "Xiaoxing, do you have something on your mind?"
Mother Wu Yun also smiled: "Do you like which girl? Tell me, my mother will ask for you to kiss." ”
Luo Xing's face blushed slightly, and then stabilized his mind, put down the chopsticks, and said with a solemn expression: "Dad, mother, I want to apply for the God of War Academy!"
"What?" Luo Guan's chopsticks slammed on the table, his face sank.
Even Wu Yun, the mother who loves Luo Xing the most, has no smile.
"Xiaoxing, can't you be a little more stable, you know that your father and mother have always opposed you becoming a cultivator!"
Mother Wu Yun persuaded: "What's the good of becoming a cultivator, I don't know how many cultivators die in the hands of demon beasts all day long, my father and mother only have you as a son, I don't want you to become a cultivator, as long as you are safe." ”
"But if it weren't for the cultivator, my son would have died a long time ago! As you know, it was my dream to become a cultivator. Luo Xing did not agree to his parents for the first time, but argued with reason.
"Become a cultivator? Hmph, why are you? People are all soaked in medicinal baths from a small age to adulthood, and their physical fitness is many times better than yours, and even more so, there are famous teachers to guide them, and they practice boxing techniques to temper their muscles, bones, flesh and blood, what about you? It takes a lot of effort to lift up a hundred catties of things! Don't be delusional, you don't have the talent to become a cultivator at all!" said his father Luo Guan with a merciless blow.
"That's because you didn't give me a chance at all!"
Luo Xing said angrily.
As soon as he mentioned this, he got angry, for fear that he would exercise his body and become a cultivator, his parents simply raised him as a lady, and arranged for him to learn piano, chess, calligraphy and painting every day. As soon as he wanted to help his parents do some work and move his muscles, he would be stared at by the two of them like thieves.
This time it was Luo Guan and Wu Yun's turn to be embarrassed, the two glanced at each other, Luo Guan's eyes rolled, he thought about it, and said with a sneer: "Don't say that your father and mother won't give you a chance, as long as you can do three things within ten days, we will promise you to apply for the God of War Academy." ”
"Okay, you say, I can do it!"
Seeing that his father finally opened his mouth, Luo Xing's eyes lit up and he hurriedly said.
"The first thing, if you want to become a cultivator, you must manifest your talent, your mother and I will not care about you for ten days, but after ten days, you must reach the first level of the physical realm!"
"Ahh
Luo Xing's mouth was wide open, and his body was a thousand catties, that is, he wanted to make the strength of his arms reach a thousand catties in ten days.
"This can't be! Your request is too perverted!" Luo Xing couldn't help but say.
"Then you just give up. Luo Guan's face didn't matter.
"I promise you, you say the second thing. Luo Xing gritted his teeth and said.
"The second thing, that is about your living expenses for applying for the God of War Academy. You must know that the tuition fees of the God of War Academy are very high, and our family only sells some of the four treasures of the study, and there is not much profit, so you have to make up the tuition fees of the God of War Academy by yourself within ten days. The corners of Luo Guan's mouth twitched and continued.
Luo Xing looked at Luo Guan's eyes, he knew that his family should be able to pay for this fee, but since his parents were against him becoming a cultivator, even if he met the first condition, it would be impossible for him to pay for his tuition.
Thinking of this, Luo Xing stiffened his head and said, "Okay." ”
"Then there's one last thing left, and I won't bother you with this, you have a lot of books in your room! A smile appeared at the corner of Luo Guan's mouth.
Luo Xing felt like he was going to faint!
Isn't that a dilemma?
There are at least hundreds of books on the bookshelf in my room, even if I have read them all, no one can guarantee that they are word for word!
"Dad, you Laipi, you don't plan to make me a cultivator at all!" Luo Xing finally couldn't help but erupt.
Three conditions, one is more perverted than the other, and the most critical thing is to complete it within ten days......
"Why, don't you have confidence! Then stay at home honestly, don't dream of becoming a cultivator. Luo Guan said.
"Don't you think! Aren't these three conditions? I promise you. ”
Luo Xing slapped the table, stood up, said viciously, and then turned around and left.
"Xiaoxing, you haven't finished eating yet!" Wu Yun shouted.
"Don't eat! I'm full!" Luo Xing's voice came.
Wu Yun turned her head, looked at her husband, and said with a wry smile: "Are we a little too much?"
"That's no way, if we really let Luo Xing go to the imperial capital, our things may be exposed......" Luo Guan lost his previous smile, and his face was solemn.
"If, I mean, if Xiao Xing really did all the three things you said, would you really promise him to make him a cultivator?" Wu Yun said hesitantly.
Luo Guan nodded and said, "If he can really complete it and prove that he is really suitable to be a cultivator, we can't hinder his dream." And our incident may be fate. ”
"Alright then! It's up to Xiaoxing to do it. Wu Yun sighed and said.
