Chapter 7: Tangled
As soon as Wang Zhen said, he couldn't help but suddenly realize, yes, since there is a martial king so close to him, what else is there to use to go to the academy, then he still hasn't awakened the natal beast and taught martial arts to serve in one stop. So Wang Zhen's father turned his head to Lu Ce and asked, "Yes, Xiao Ce, since Nian Xing has taught you the knowledge of survival in the wild and so much knowledge about martial artists, hasn't he taught you martial arts, or wants to help you awaken the natal beast?"
Lu Ce shook his head a little stunned and said, "No, those knowledge of survival in the wild were given to me by my father when I was four years old when he took me out hunting, as for what I just said, some of them were said by him when he was drunk, and some of them were asked by me when he was drunk, because he never said this to me when he was sober." And one of the most memorable times I remember was when he told me: 'With great ability comes great responsibility, but in fact, an ordinary life is good.' After that, I didn't mention the martial artist or anything, maybe it was what my father said, the ordinary life is good. Lu Ce's last sentence really surprised them, a child, a seven-year-old child would actually think that the ordinary life is very good, if this sentence comes from the mouth of an old man, then this old man must be moved, but from the mouth of a seven-year-old child, what is it? hehe, I can't believe it, but it just appeared, without a trace of falsehood.
In fact, in Lu Ce's heart, he still yearns to be a martial artist, has strong strength, can do what he wants to do, and protect the people he wants to protect, this is the idea that a young man should have.
The reason why he said that was completely influenced by his father's reading of the stars: borrowing wine to kill his sorrows all day long, and living a chaotic life. Although Lu Ce didn't know what the reason was, he knew that it was definitely related to his mother. Because, every time he mentioned his mother in front of his father, he was silent, and then he was drunk, and he was so drunk that the sky was dark. He felt that his father would not allow him to become a martial artist, and he felt that his father was afraid that he would follow that path as well. Therefore, Lu Ce would say such a sentence, but no matter how he disguised it, his desire for a martial artist could not be concealed.
Of course, Wang Zhen's father couldn't see Lu Ce's true thoughts, so he asked categorically: "Xiao Ce, I only ask if you want to become a martial artist and practice martial arts." ”
Being asked such a frank question, Lu Ce didn't know how to answer, didn't he want to? Of course he did. What do you think, my father depends on me, and he can't teach himself, can he go out?
Just when Lu Ce was still asking himself again and again in his heart, Wang Zhen's father immediately said, "Answer me, do you want to or don't want to." ”
"Let me think!" The subconscious answer betrayed Lu Ce, but Lu Ce was also relieved.
"If you want to do it, now go home and tell Nianxing that you want to become a martial artist, you have to practice martial arts. Of course, it is the best that he can teach, if he doesn't teach, you will start the academy in the town with Wang Zhen, rest assured, Uncle Tuition will help you pay it. Wang Zhen's father patted his chest at this time and said very manly. After finishing speaking, he glanced at his wife, only to see that there was a slight tenderness in her eyes, and she did not have any disagreement because of her private decision, but was still a little optimistic about the decision she made. When he saw this, his confidence was even greater.
Now that he had made his choice, Lu Ce didn't bother anymore, and stood up and ran out all of a sudden.
As soon as he ran out of the yard, he immediately ran back again, returned to the dining table of the house and picked up the meal prepared by the mother of the house for his father, and said a little embarrassed, "Hehe, I'm sorry, I'm so excited." After saying that, he ran out again.
This situation couldn't help but cause a burst of laughter from Wang Zhen's family, especially Wang Zhen, who laughed even more happily at this time.
Lu Ce, who ran out of the door, was also very excited at this time, he wanted to run home as soon as possible and tell his father his thoughts, at this time he seemed to have felt that his two legs were a little insufficient, and he wished that he hadn't given birth to two more at the beginning.
Along the way, he couldn't help but see some familiar people, Lu Ce just greeted with a smile, and then continued to run home. Everyone who knows Lu Ce can see that Lu Ce seems to be very happy today, and somehow, when everyone sees Lu Ce who is so happy, there seems to be a sense of joy in their hearts that slowly rises. For a while, many people were brought to a happy mood because of Lu Ce's happiness.
Soon, Lu Ce returned to his home, which had no yard at all, not even a fence around the perimeter of the house, just a lonely house standing there.
Since Lu Ce's house is some of the southernmost parts of the village, there is only one house here, and the house has not been repaired for some years, which looks like a dilapidated feeling, which is very different from the small mountain village that was still lively and peaceful just now, but who would have thought that this house is also in this village?
Pushing open the dilapidated wooden door, the awkward cry of the wooden door came out for a while, which was particularly harsh, but Lu Ce, who had long been accustomed to this, didn't care, and this incongruous sound did not affect his excitement at all.
Entering the house, his home could be described as a house with four walls, and in the main hall there were only two small chairs except for a small shabby table. Although the house is so dilapidated, it is spotless, which shows that Lu Ce usually cleans up the house with a variety of care. Walked over to the table and placed the meal for Dad on top.
On the left side of the main hall was the bedroom of Lu Ce's father, Nian Xing, and then Lu Ce lifted the shabby but very clean curtain and entered the bedroom.
At this time, Nian Xing was still sleeping in it, and the bedroom was filled with the smell of inferior barley wine, and there was almost nowhere to settle in the bedroom, because there were wine jars everywhere, some were intact, and some were also broken, in fact, not only on the ground, but even on Nian Xing's bed, there were many wine jars.
It's not that Lu Ce doesn't clean up here, it's just that whenever he wants to clean up, his father will stop him. Even if he secretly cleaned up behind his father's back, it would be like this again in two days. So Lu Ce stopped cleaning up his father's house later, but no matter how long it took and how much wine his father drank, it was always like this in his house, but he never saw his father throw the wine jar outside.
Looking at his father, who was still sleeping, Lu Ce wanted to wake him up immediately, and then tell him what he thought, but he didn't dare to come forward to disturb him, because he knew his father's temper, and if he disturbed his sleep, the consequences would not be so bearable.
After thinking about it for a while, Lu Ce chose to quit the house, after all, he had waited for such a long time, so he didn't care about it for a while. So Lu Ce returned to his room, compared to Nian Xing's house, Lu Ce's is much better, although it is only a small bed, because the bedroom is not very big, so it does not look empty, although the bedding on the bed is a little old, but it is very clean and neatly placed. If this is in someone else's house, the visitor will definitely think that this house has a good hostess. However, these are precisely in a family without a hostess, and the male owner of this family is a drunkard who drinks all day long, which shows how sensible and capable the children of this family are.
Lu Ce lay on his side on his bed, and gradually calmed down from the excitement just now, and now he began to be a little entangled again, because when he calmed down and thought about it, he would find many problems, what if his father didn't agree to practice martial arts by himself? Even if he agreed, what if he couldn't awaken the natal beast? Also, if he really went out, he would be like his father?
There are many, many problems like this, and at this time, Lu Ce fell into a deep contradiction.
