As the sun sets, and when the morning light is replaced by the afterglow of the setting sun, it is already 9 o'clock in the evening.

During the period, in addition to having a meal, Zhang Fan put all the effort he could put into the game, maybe there are more crazy characters than him among the players of "The Brave", and there are even many such people, but his efforts in the past few days are also incomparable to many players.

At 9:00, he finally cleared the Lost Crypt (Death Mode) ten times today.

Although he was mentally exhausted, he was still ready to continue the struggle, intending to break through the death mode again.

However, just as he was about to walk into the lost crypt, a prompt sound came from the system.

"The player 'starts all over again' and someone outside the game contacts you. Please choose whether or not to leave the game world? ”

A look of doubt appeared on his face, usually no one bothered at this time, but today someone was looking for him, could it be his sister? In addition to my sister, there is also a nanny in her forties in this villa, and this nanny recently took a month's leave because her son had something in college, saying that she was going back to her hometown, and it was not time yet, right?

Confused, he nodded: "Exit." ”

The next moment, his consciousness shifted from the game to the real world, and he didn't expect two people to appear in his sight that he had missed for a long time.

"Mom, Dad!"

There was excitement and surprise in his voice that he hadn't seen for a long time, and of course, there was also a kind of self-blame that could not be faded.

Reborn for a week, he hasn't called his parents once, this son has failed too much, he always advertises himself as a model of filial piety, but this time he spent all his energy on the game, a deep self-blame, climbed into his heart.

"Little Sail."

Chen Baolian and Zhang Fan's mother walked over gently, touched Zhang Fan's forehead, and gestured with her fingers a few times: "I've grown taller again." ”

"Huh." Zhang Fan only had a smirk left at this time.

Only in front of his family and Bai Peng and Zhao ** will he reveal his real surname. Gentle? That's just his disguise.

His gaze lingered on his mother for a moment, then shifted to his father.

Zhang Guoqiang had a few gray hairs on his head, with a trace of inconspicuous tiredness, but he exuded a heavy breath all over his body, his breath was long and long, standing in front of him, like a tall green pine, with a straight waist, a faint smile on his face, confident and calm.

It's just that the next moment, the expression on his face changed a little.

His face gradually became solemn, and a trace of surprise flashed under his eyes, but it was too inconspicuous that even someone with amazing eyesight like Zhang Fan could not find it.

"What's wrong?"

After all, Chen Baolian has lived with her husband for so many years, acquaintance, acquaintance, love, all the way to the palace of marriage, and has experienced countless tribulations, it is not an exaggeration to say that she has a heart, she can see at a glance that her husband is wrong: "Brother Guoqiang, what's wrong with you?" ”

Zhang Fan also looked at his father puzzled.

Zhang Guoqiang closed his eyes, opened them again, showed a wry smile on his face, and asked Zhang Fan: "Child, tell me, who did you learn martial arts from?" ”

"Wu..."After Zhang Guoqiang's reminder, Chen Baolian realized something, and a worry suddenly rose in her heart.

"Martial arts?"

Zhang Fan was puzzled at first, then thought of the changes in his body, and thought in his heart: "Is this martial arts?" ”

The so-called martial arts, not the performance of the surname of the martial arts, nor is it as simple as described in Jin Daxia's novel, it is rumored that powerful martial arts cultivators, even have the ability to overturn the rivers and seas, and the earth-shaking ability, in recent years, it has been a little calmer, in those centuries ago, those powerful people each had incredible power, crossing the universe may be too exaggerated, but it is not impossible to break out of the atmosphere.

He said honestly: "No one has taught me, and I don't know how it is, so it's just like that." Could it be that this is the legendary martial arts? A hint of curiosity appeared on his face.

It's a lie to say that he doesn't know, but it's true that no one taught him.

Not to mention this life, even in the previous life, he didn't have the concept of martial arts and martial arts cultivators in his mind.

"Xiaofan, I hope you are honest and don't lie to me. This matter is very important, it is a matter of life and death for us, I hope you will think about it. Zhang Guoqiang's tone sank, he thought that Zhang Fan was lying to himself, this kind of tone, this kind of demeanor, Zhang Fan saw it from him for the first time, not only him, but Chen Baolian also had such thoughts.

"Dad, Mom. Is there something you're hiding from me? ”

Zhang Fan is not stupid, on the contrary, he is also very smart, if anyone dares to say that the god of skill is stupid, he will be sprayed to death by the spittle of countless players. Hearing his father's words, as well as the expressions of his parents, he knew that something must have happened in the family, and it was even likely that it was the cause of the family tragedy in his previous life, he couldn't wait to ask, his tone was full of eagerness and anxiety.

Zhang Guoqiang said: "You don't care about anything else, answer my question first." ”

"Mom, Dad, do you believe me?"

Zhang Fan also said seriously that when facing his parents, he had never been so serious and serious, which made people involuntarily believe that what he was going to say next must be true.

"You're our child, we don't believe who else can you trust?" Chen Baolian said softly.

Although Zhang Guoqiang did not speak, his eyes were also full of trust.

Zhang Fan smiled and said, "I didn't lie to you just now, it's true that no one taught me." I know it's hard to believe, but I'm telling the truth, it's a matter of life and death for our whole family, and I'm not going to joke about it. "Most of the family changes in the previous life were due to other reasons, and the so-called company bankruptcy may not be the root cause of all this.

When he thought of his father's miserable appearance after his death, when he thought of his mother's sad and depressed appearance, and when he remembered that his sister was molested by a gangster, he felt extremely painful and blamed himself in his heart.

Seeing that Zhang Fan's expression suddenly became a little gloomy, Chen Baolian suddenly stroked his head in distress and said softly: "Child, I believe in you." I believe everything you say. ”

Shaking his head, Zhang Guoqiang also regretted it a little, maybe he was too sensitive.

"With this child's surname, although he used to get into trouble outside, he never hid anything at home, even if he knew that he might be taught a lesson by me, he still didn't hide it. He doesn't have any secrets in our eyes. Looks like I'm wrong about him. ”

Zhang Guoqiang thought silently in his heart, and his gaze gradually relaxed, no longer giving people such a sense of oppression.

"Mom, I'm fine." Zhang Fan regained a smile on his face, and thought to himself: "It seems that our family also hides a lot of secrets, since I can improve my strength in reality by leveling up in the game, then I know what I should do next." ”

In the past, he was still a little hesitant, although he vowed to take revenge on those who hurt his family, but he had no goal and did not know how to act, but now, he knows that only by improving his own strength can he have the ability to help his father, and only then can he hope that the family will not go down the old path of tragedy.

"By the way, what about your sister?" Chen Baolian asked.

"Isn't she in the room?" Zhang Fan asked rhetorically, but after finishing speaking, he realized that his sentence was a bit redundant, and after thinking about it, he gave an uncertain answer, "Maybe it's Chang Yue's house, right?" You know, they're on pretty good terms. ”

Hearing the word 'Chang Yue', Zhang Guoqiang was thoughtful.

Chen Baolian said with a smile: "Speaking of Chang Yue, I think she is quite a good match for you." How about I'm going to talk to your dad about it? ”

"Forget it."

Zhang Fan smiled bitterly: "You don't know, with my reputation in this city, how many people dare to follow me?" Not to mention that Chang Yue's girl is arrogant, she is an ordinary woman, and she may not be able to afford me. Of course, if it is those women who want to climb the dragon and the phoenix, how can I look at Zhang Fan? Besides, I already have someone I like, so don't mess around with mandarin duck scores. ”

For women, Zhang Fan has not thought carefully about it in this life, because he already has a person living in his heart, the woman who is not very beautiful but always has a lily smile on her face.

"Really? Tell Mom who she is. Chen Baolian was immediately interested.

Zhang Fan shook his head helplessly: "Mom, I'm not in a hurry about this, what are you anxious about!" I haven't even gotten a word with her yet, and it's too early to be happy. ”

Looking at a pair of mother and son talking homely words, Zhang Guoqiang also felt a warmth in his heart, but he didn't know how long this warmth would last, and he sighed deeply in his heart: "Alas~"

Glancing at his father secretly, Zhang Fan said in his heart: "Even if I ask now, you won't say it." You'll always tell me when I'm stronger. ”

Maybe it was because they had been away from home for half a year, and the couple all ignored one point, Zhang Fan's fourfold cultivation was only the result of a week.

Not only Zhang Guoqiang and Chen Baolian, but even Zhang Fan himself didn't realize how amazing his cultivation improvement speed was.

"Mom and Dad, you're back."

At this time, the voice of the little sister Zhang Xiaoling came in from outside, although she learned the news that her parents were coming back a few days earlier, but when she really saw her parents who had been away for half a year, she still couldn't help but show surprise on her face: "Doesn't it mean that the genius has arrived?" If I had known that you would be back today, I wouldn't have gone to Chang Yue's house. ”

"Hehe, you kid." It is rare for a family reunion, Chen Baolian has a gentle smile on her face, and her mood has become extremely joyful.

The things on the old man's side, which have been entangled in her troubles, have also been temporarily thrown away.
