Chapter 646: The Road I Have to Take
Zhang Xudong had been suspicious of them before, and after Wu Lingying reminded him, this made him even more unable to sound. www.biquge.info However, he couldn't help but think of them at this moment, at least he didn't have anything to prove that they were fake, and Zhang Xudong could still find some family warmth from them, which was the reason why he had been reluctant to delve into them.
Therefore, Zhang Xudong did not return to Yudu, and went directly to the three eastern provinces. After getting off the plane, he went directly to the villa he bought for Qiao Xiu and Zhang Xulan, which can be regarded as a foothold for him and a warm harbor. It's just that Zhang Xudong's mood on the road was very apprehensive, he wanted to see their mother and daughter, but he was afraid to see them, and his heart was like fifteen buckets, seven up and eight down.
If they are not their relatives, at least for now, Zhang Xudong has a trace of desire, but after getting along for a long time, the truth can naturally be seen. If they are really not their relatives and there is a purpose for approaching them, then Zhang Xudong really doesn't know how to face all this, but reality always has to be faced, because this is reality.
If they are not his relatives, then Zhang Xudong must figure out that they are close to their own purpose, now that their ancient martial arts have reached the peak of martial arts, it should be regarded as Luo Xiu's request, she should tell herself everything before, and then take herself to the so-called Guwu Zhang family, and everything will be understood by then.
When he arrived downstairs at the villa, Zhang Xudong's footsteps became a little slow, approaching them was approaching the secret, but Zhang Xudong was a little afraid of the day when the truth of the secret was revealed. Seeing that the lights upstairs were on, Zhang Xudong took a deep breath and pressed the doorbell, and suddenly Zhang Xulan's voice came from inside: "Wait a minute, I'll be here soon." ”
Ten seconds later, the door opened. Zhang Xulan's handsome face appeared in Zhang Xudong's realization and said, "Brother, you're finally back!" ”
"Yes, I'm back!" Zhang Xudong nodded slightly and walked in. After closing the door, Zhang Xulan said: "Brother, as soon as you leave, it will be a year, and there is no news, our mother is almost worried about you, if you don't come back, your mother will travel all over the country to find you." ”
Stunned for a moment, Zhang Xudong was surprised: "What's wrong?" Did something happen? ”
Zhang Xulan sighed and said, "I don't know the specifics, she has been locking herself in the room, why don't she come out at any time, I send her in every time she eats." However, I saw that her expression was wrong, and there should be something very important. Brother, since you're back, let's go and have a look! ”
Zhang Xudong nodded, and followed Zhang Xudong towards Luo Xiu's room.
When she arrived at the door of Luo Xiu's bedroom, Zhang Xulan called softly, "Mom, my brother is back." ”
Suddenly, there was a panicked sound inside, and soon the door was opened, and Qiao Xiu's haggard face appeared in front of Zhang Xudong. Her emotions were very excited, and then she became gloomy, and a burst of anger exploded, and she gave Zhang Xudong a hard slap with her hand.
"Smack!" Zhang Xudong's head shook and slapped, and suddenly a wave of anger came to his heart, the White Lion King and his wife had never moved him with a finger, and it was Zhang Xudong's most disgusting slap in the face, but Qiao Xiu actually slapped him directly.
forcibly suppressed his anger, after all, he didn't know what was going on, now Qiao Xiu is still his biological mother, there is no shame in the mother beating her son, think about it from another perspective, if she is really her own mother and she has been hiding for a year, this slap is reasonable.
"You actually know to come back? What have you been doing this year? I don't even have a phone call, so even if I send a message, at least let me know you're safe. If you have anything long and two short, how do you let me live? How can we avenge our great revenge? Qiao Xiu almost reached a state of rage, and scolded Zhang Xudong angrily.
Hearing Qiao Xiu say this, Zhang Xudong's anger suddenly disappeared, and he immediately became very moved, although Qiao Xiu's behavior and words were a little intense, but Zhang Xudong felt that he was caring about himself, isn't this the performance that relatives should have? But the last sentence made Zhang Xudong's heart cold, how did he feel like she was her tool for revenge.
Zhang Xulan hurriedly said, "Mom, what are you doing here?" Isn't my brother already back, so don't be angry anymore. ”
"I'm sorry." Zhang Xudong sighed and said, "I heard Xulan say that you have been locking yourself in the room, is there anything important?" We are relatives, there is something to tell me, I am now the only man in the family, and I am naturally fighting against something. ”
"That's pretty much it." Nodding slightly, Qiao Xiu said, "You two come into the bedroom with me." After that, he turned around and entered the room, and then sat down on the edge of the bed, Zhang Xudong and Zhang Xulan went in one after another and found one to sit down.
Qiao Xiu looked at Zhang Xudong and said, "What realm have you reached now?" Are you lazy? My hope is now in you, you are the only one who can avenge your father and take back what belongs to us. ”
Zhang Xudong said: "If you divide the realm according to what you said, I have reached the peak of martial arts, and I may become a martial artist at any time." ”
"The pinnacle of martial arts?" Qiao Xiu hesitated, although she knew that Zhang Xudong would practice faster than ordinary martial artists, but she didn't expect it to be terrifying.
At the beginning, Zhang Feng cultivated this mental method, although the progress was also very obvious, but it was not as perverted as Zhang Xudong. In fact, she didn't know what happened to Zhang Xudong, if it wasn't for the old monk who gave Zhang Xudong a crossing, Zhang Xudong would not have progressed so fast, it was precisely because of that Haoran righteousness that she could suppress that evil qi, so that the two blended with each other, so that Zhang Xudong's body had undergone great changes and had a qualitative leap.
Zhang Xudong nodded and said: "Just a few days ago, I just reached the peak of a martial artist, and the internal force in my body has also changed, but it is difficult to become a martial artist, but I will continue to cultivate." ”
Qiao Xiu showed a satisfied smile and said, "Well done, worthy of being Zhang Feng's only son." In the ancient martial arts world, no one has ever reached the peak of martial artists for more than a year, even if there are very few high-level martial artists, you are the only one. After hesitating for a moment, Qiao Xiu said: "Now it's just the right time for you to come back, if you miss this opportunity, and you don't know when to wait, with your current strength at the peak of the martial arts, you should be able to barely cope with the things in front of you." ”
Zhang Xudong asked puzzledly, "What is the matter?" ”
"Recently, the old patriarch of the Guwu Zhang family happened to have a ninetieth birthday, and the clansmen of the Zhang family would return to the Zhang family on that day to congratulate the old patriarch on his birthday. And at this time of year, there will be a martial arts school for the younger generation of the Zhang family to publicize the talents of the younger generations of the Zhang family, so as to facilitate the discussion of the future patriarch of the Zhang family. Qiao Xiu looked at Zhang Xudong and said very seriously: "Let's take advantage of this time to go back, and when the time comes, you will go up as the descendants of the Zhang family to compete, and it is best to kill all the descendants of the Zhang family." Let the Zhang family monkey be anxious, and you will naturally become the young patriarch at that time. ”
Zhang Xudong frowned slightly and said, "We have been away from the Zhang family for so many years, they have long remembered our existence, maybe we can't even enter the door of the Zhang family." Moreover, didn't you say that we had an opponent before, but is it a suicide to go now? ”
Qiao Xiu smiled and said, "I forgot about this stubble before, but now I remember it." When the old patriarch celebrates his birthday, most of the ancient martial arts families in Huaxia will pass, and so many people will be present at that time, even if someone wants to understand me, they will not dare to act rashly. And the old patriarch has long stopped asking about the ordinary affairs of the Zhang family, but with him present, the brute who murdered your father will definitely not dare to mess around. When you compete, you don't have to show mercy to your subordinates, do your best, and kill the Zhang family, and they will train you alone. When the time comes, you will become the young patriarch, and even that brute will not dare to touch you again, and we can return to the Zhang family. ”
After hesitating for a moment, Zhang Xudong said: "But it's just an ordinary clansman competition, if I am ruthless, it will inevitably cause the whole clan to hide it, and it is estimated that when I kill the first person, I will be pulled down and killed by the master of the Zhang family." ”
"Are you so afraid of death? You have Zhang Feng's blood in your bones, are you still worthy of being his son? Qiao Xiu glared at Zhang Xudong and said, "Do you know? I've been waiting for this year too long, and I'd rather you die in the arena than you be so cowardly and don't recognize me in the future. ”
An ancient martial arts family with a long history can survive in different dynasties to this day, and there must be its unknown secrets. The old patriarch of the Zhang family is erudite and talented, and he is a genius of the world. In the years of the Anti-Japanese War, although the Zhang family in the new era has been hidden, their clansmen can be seen everywhere, and they have extraordinary influence in both military and political circles, so they are still strong.
Zhang Tianshu, the old patriarch of the Zhang family, has a total of three sons, the eldest son Zhang Kui, the second son Zhang Wu, and the third son Zhang Feng, all of whom are heroes in the ancient martial arts world. Among them, the third son, Zhang Feng, is naturally the most outstanding, his ancient martial arts is super strong, excellent in character and learning, and the most resourceful. Therefore, Zhang Tianshu had the intention of cultivating Zhang Feng as the patriarch of the next generation of the Zhang family, but Zhang Feng did not have such an idea, he was drunk with ancient martial arts all his life, and he was very reluctant to those rights.
And, when the Zhang family faced a strong enemy, it was Zhang Feng who led the clansmen to defeat the enemy and keep the Zhang family's position. It can be said that Zhang Feng is a model of that generation, but heroes have loved beautiful women since ancient times, and Zhang Feng can't be an exception, he just made a mistake in a woman's body and made a big mistake.
The current head of the Zhang family is the eldest son Zhang Kui, although he is not as good as Zhang Feng in all aspects, but he is conscientious and conscientious, and has always been cautious, the development of the Zhang family in recent years is obvious to all, although there is no infinite scenery like Zhang Tianshu's reign, but there is no regression.
Some people think that this is Zhang Feng's fame in that battle, which shocked other Guwu families, so outsiders dare not easily fight the Zhang family's idea, and some people think that this is the reason why Zhang Tianshu is still alive, and he is still afraid of the coercion of this old man, so he did not dare to provoke the Zhang family again.
Anyway, Zhang Kui is also indispensable, although he has no great achievements, but he also continues to expand the power of the Zhang family, although the process is very slow, but there is also Zhang Tianshu's demeanor, but he is stable and wins, so it is difficult for anyone to find his flaws, but if someone finds it, it will be fatal.
Zhang Tianshu's ninetieth birthday is naturally a great joy, and the invitation has already been placed in the hands of those characters with heads and faces. However, this is a matter that belongs to the ancient martial arts world, and people from the military and political circles were not invited to participate, and in any case, the ancient martial arts world has its own rules, so naturally military and political figures cannot be allowed to participate.
At this moment, the younger generation of the Zhang family knows very well that this old patriarch's birthday is also a great opportunity for them to show their style. As long as he can win the championship in this competition, it will definitely make Zhang Tianshu notice, if he is slightly instructed by the old patriarch, then he is a figure who can call the wind and rain in the Zhang family. And this competition is also looking for the future patriarch of the Zhang family, after all, Zhang Kui is also nearly seventy, so more people are rushing for the position of this patriarch.
Qiao Xiu has lived in the Zhang family, so she naturally knows the importance of this birthday, so she has been waiting for Zhang Xudong to come back. Now that Zhang Xudong is finally back, she can rest assured. In Qiao Xiu's opinion, she didn't have much desire for herself, she just wanted the Zhang family to take revenge, but in fact, the purpose was to return to the Zhang family, and even if she died, she would be buried with Zhang Feng.
Zhang Xudong has become Qiao Xiu's only hope, and she pinned all her hopes on Zhang Xudong. As long as Zhang Xudong can win the championship, she will naturally let the old patriarch notice, and then she can return to the Zhang family.
Zhang Xudong naturally didn't know about this, and he had only heard the latter say about Qiao Xiu and Guwu Zhang's family, in fact, he just hoped that Zhang Xudong would take back the position of patriarch that originally belonged to Zhang Feng from Zhang Kui's hands, and then drive Zhang Kui and his family out of the Zhang family, and Zhang Xudong didn't know how true this matter was, anyway, he could only take one step at a time.
If there is no need for this, Zhang Xudong really doesn't want to get into this matter, he would rather Qiao Xiu and Zhang Xulan live by his side for a lifetime, whether they are his family members or not, he treats them as relatives, isn't it good to be happy?
But there are some things that Zhang Xudong can't control, Qiao Xiu has suffered for so many years, and she has already been buried by hatred, I'm afraid it's impossible to reassure her. It's just that Zhang Xudong is suspicious of their snake fans, and he doesn't know if they are his relatives, if he doesn't get involved, then unpredictable consequences may occur, and even if there are dragon gangs and ZO mercenary groups, he may not be able to protect him, after all, this is an ancient martial arts family that has been passed down for thousands of years, and all of them are masters.
Then again, now Zhang Xudong wants to find out the identities of Qiao Xiu and Zhang Xudong, so he can only go to Guwu Zhang's house. It's not that Zhang Xudong doesn't know whether he is alive or dead, it's that he hasn't been clear in his heart whether this is his relatives or not. If it is a relative, the mother's words cannot be ignored, and it is not that the relatives will know it as soon as they leave, and it seems that this trip is inevitable.
It's just that this time the road is extraordinary, Zhang Xudong can only be prepared to accept all the unknown baptism, as a journey to temper himself, always to see the master, to know what the goal of future efforts is.
