"General Xu, Wu Yuan, he ......" Wu Qiming wanted to answer for Wu Yuan.

"Patriarch Wu." General Xu's eyes were slightly cold, and his voice became indifferent: "I'm asking Wu Yuan now!" ”

An invisible qi diffuse, like a tiger with its eyes open, making Wu Qiming's pupils shrink and his hair stand up!

Although he also practiced martial arts, he was only a six-rank martial artist.

"Wu Yuan, you don't have to be nervous." The dean Zhang Da on the side was still smiling, and the sudden cold atmosphere eased down: "What do you think in your heart, even if you open your mouth, as the dean, I still hope you can think about it comprehensively." ”

It seems to be persuasive, but in fact it is threatening.

At this moment, Wu Yuan's eyes seemed to have been attracted by the large stack of silver tickets presented by the servant, and his eyes were slightly red.

See this scene.

Wu Qiming sighed slightly in his heart, but the corners of General Xu and Dean Zhang Da's mouths showed a hint of imperceptible smiles.

No matter how stable he is, after all, he is a fourteen-year-old boy, and five thousand taels of silver is enough to buy a mansion in the middle of the city!

"Wu Yuan, if you give up, you can take away the five thousand taels of silver now."

General Xu was bewitched again: "Next year, you can also step into the Yunwu Academy and chase the peak of martial arts!" It is not a lie to come to the marquis to worship the generals. ”

Wu Yuan's face showed a trace of struggle, and he glanced at Wu Qiming again, as if he had made up his mind: "General, dean, I am willing to fight for the glory of leaving the city for the glory of 'No. 1 in the Four Mansions', and cultivate in the Martial Arts Academy for another year." ”

"Haha good!" General Xu couldn't help but smile and said, "This is my good boy who left the city, and he is an excellent disciple of the Junzong Martial Academy." ”

Wu Yuan kept peeking at the stack of silver tickets out of the corner of his eyes.

Wu Qiming's face flashed with regret and unwillingness.

"Wu Yuan, you go out with the silver ticket first." Zhang Dadao.

"Yes." Wu Yuanlian stretched out his hand to grab the silver ticket, carefully put it away, and then exited the hall under the guidance of the servants.

Inside the hall of the temple.

After Wu Yuan left, Zhang Da looked at Wu Qiming: "Brother Wu, as the patriarch of the Wu clan, you should understand that the relationship is very powerful, but don't make mistakes." ”

"I understand below."

Wu Qiming lowered his body and said: "After I go back, I will definitely mention Wu Yuan again and again, and I will not let him divulge this matter, Wu Yuan gave up this year's martial arts competition, which is purely voluntary." ”

"Today, Zai Xia and Wu Yuan were only fortunate enough to attend the general's private banquet, and after the banquet, they went home on their own, and they were never summoned by the general and Dean Zhang." Wu Qiming said again.

General Xu and Zhang Da glanced at each other and nodded in satisfaction.

This Wu Qiming is sensible.

……

Waiting for the housekeeper to send Wu Qiming and Wu Yuan out of the mansion through the side door.

"Brother Zhang, there is one more thing to trouble you." General Xu smiled and said, "Wu Yuan gave up the matter of Dabi, and he doesn't need to tell Yuan Han. ”

Zhang Daxian was stunned for a moment, nodded slightly, and said with emotion: "Parents have far-reaching plans for their children, and I hope that Yuanhan will not live up to your efforts." ”

"What I can do, that's it, after entering the Yunwu Palace, it depends on his own creation." General Xu said with emotion.

"Okay."

Zhang Da got up: "General Xu, I won't stay longer, Wu Yuan's matter, I still have to communicate with a few martial arts teachers to ensure that nothing goes wrong." ”

The Junzong Martial Academy is related to the foundation of the sect, and it is not the dean who can cover the sky with one hand.

General Xu nodded: "Then I won't send it." ”

watched Zhang Da go away.

Call!

On the side of the hall, a young man with a cold face walked out, and said in a low voice: "Father, even if it is really a fair competition, the sixth brother is not the opponent of Wu Yuan." ”

"Besides!"

"With your father's prestige, if you want Wu Yuan to give up, why do you have to take out another five thousand taels of silver?" The young man was puzzled.

"Stupid!"

General Xu glanced at his eldest son, and he hated iron but not steel: "You like to be clever since you were a child, but you don't know the word 'willing'?" ”

"There is giving, there is gain."

"Five thousand taels of silver, what is it to my Xu family? But this is enough to appease Wu's anger and minimize the risks. ”

"Of the six of you brothers, only your sixth brother has truly inherited my martial arts talent, and my Xu clan will continue to prosper, I hope it will be in him."

"For him to be able to enter the Yunwu Palace, I would rather pay a little more than make a mistake." General Xu said in a deep voice.

"The child is not thoughtful, and he hopes that his father will forgive his sins." The young man even bowed his head to admit his mistake, but there was a chill in the depths of his eyes.

……

'Leaving the city', the curfew is lifted every Friday every month, and today happens to be March 15, so although the night is late, the streets along the way are still lively.

on the carriage.

"Wu Yuan, you shouldn't have agreed." Wu Qiming stared at Wu Yuan.

"Patriarch, five thousand taels of silver, a lot." Wu Yuan said lightly: "I just entered the Yunwu Hall a year late. ”

"Silver money is just an external object, the land of Middle-earth, and the strength of martial arts is fundamental."

Wu Qiming shook his head and said, "Do you know why Yunwu Hall only recruits teenagers under the age of sixteen?" From the age of twelve to eighteen, it is the best age to lay the foundation of martial arts, and if you miss it, you will regret it for the rest of your life. ”

"If you can enter the Yunwu Hall a year earlier, let alone five thousand taels of silver, even if you pay ten thousand taels, it's worth it!" Wu Qiming had lowered his voice as much as possible, but he was still a little excited: "Wu Yuan, I thought that you had recently become enlightened in martial arts and grown up sensible, but you disappointed me too much today......

"Patriarch!"

Wu Yuan suddenly interrupted Wu Qiming's words, and he looked at the other party with clear eyes: "Today, do we have a choice?" ”

Wu Qiming was shocked.

He suddenly realized that Wu Yuan's performance in the side hall before was just a disguise.

"If I refuse, can I change the outcome?" Wu Yuan seemed to ask himself: "No!" It will only offend General Xu and Dean Zhang, forcing General Xu to resort to more risky means. ”

"General Xu dared to invite us directly to the banquet and dare to meet us directly, which proves that he is absolutely sure, if he refuses, it is a question of whether I can live safely to the martial arts academy."

"Now."

"At least, General Xu and Dean Zhang have no hostility towards us, and I can continue to cultivate in the Martial Academy."

"And he got five thousand taels of silver."

"Not a lot." Wu Yuan smiled, took out the large stack of silver tickets from his arms, and then divided most of them: "Patriarch, these are for you." ”

Wu Qiming was stunned.

"If I don't have a family, I won't be able to enter the martial arts academy."

"If there is no patriarch here today, General Xu is afraid that five hundred taels will send me away." Wu Yuan shook his head and said: "I left a thousand taels, which can be regarded as my taking advantage of the family, which is indeed what I need for my cultivation and my mother's treatment, and I hope the patriarch will understand." ”

"Wu Yuan, you take all these silver taels! Martial arts cultivation is indispensable for money. Wu Qiming said again and again, and stuffed the silver ticket into Wu Yuan's arms.

was stopped by Wu Yuan.

"Patriarch, for me, the money is enough, just do it!"

"If you don't cultivate enough, I'll find you again with the patriarch." Wu Yuan smiled: "Besides, just like the patriarch said, as long as I am strong enough, the money will roll in." ”

"What an appetite for a big pie."

"If it's too much, it's just going to support itself."

"Patriarch, just send it here, don't go in, otherwise, the rooms will gossip when they see it." Wu Yuan half got up, bowed his hand slightly, and walked out of the carriage with a slight scurry, and walked into the side street not far away.

Wu Qiming sat on the seat of the car and looked down at the large stack of silver tickets in his hand.

He really needs money, and it is not easy to maintain a family!

It is not easy to make a family stronger!

"Xu Shouyi! Zhang Da! ”

Wu Qiming muttered to himself softly, his eyes cold.

He has served as the patriarch of the Wu clan in the city for more than ten years, and he was also interested in 'martial arts' when he was a teenager, but he finally failed!

For the sake of the family, he worked hard.

Wu Yuan is the most talented disciple of the Wu family in Licheng over the years, and he is also a great hope for the revival of the family in Wu Qiming's heart.

"When it's time to bow your head, you can only bow your head."

"I only hope that Wu Yuan will not be delayed by this year." Wu Qiming sighed secretly.

He didn't take General Xu's promise to heart, and next year Dabi let Wu Yuan win the first place?

The promises of the big men are like a bear splitting a stick - a blind break!

"Martial arts cultivation, I can't help."

"I can only think of a way to let Wu Yuan not have too many worries." Wu Qiming is also constantly thinking about how to better help Wu Yuan.

……

Wu Yuan walked into the dimly lit streets and alleys, greeting the people he met along the way.

The people living in this street are all members of the Wu clan.

There are hundreds of people in the Wu family, with more than ten houses, most of them are ordinary families, generally stronger than the 'poor' in the south of the city, but they are far from rich.

Go all the way for more than 100 meters.

Wu Yuan just stopped in front of a slightly dilapidated courtyard, this is Wu Yuan's home!

"Mother, I'm back." Wu Yuan smiled and shouted loudly into the courtyard.
