Chapter 014: Treatment Promotion
Xue Luo majored in swordsmanship, and his swordsmanship attainments were not high, but it was more than enough to guide Lan'er.
The swordsmanship is different from the knife technique, the knife technique is characterized by courage and speed, and the momentum is pressing, and the swordsmanship is characterized by light and changeable, changing in motion, and the odd is born together.
"The sword must not only be fast, but also accurate, otherwise you can't hurt the enemy, no matter how fast the swordsmanship is, what's the use?......"
"Thirteen swordsmanship pays attention to a quick word, stabbing people with key moves, and the sword momentum is endless......"
Xue Luo watched Lan'er practice swordsmanship while pointing out the deficiencies in her swordsmanship.
"Young Master...... Thirteen swordsmanship is extremely vicious, the sword attacks people's vital points, I... I ......"
Xue Luo knew in her heart that Lan'er was kind in nature, and it was indeed not in line with her nature to let her practice this kind of swordsmanship.
"I'll find you a new swordsmanship in the future, but you also have to practice the thirteen swordsmanship, and if I'm not by your side in the future, you yourself will have the power to protect yourself." ”
"I will go wherever the young master goes, and I will always be by the young master's side......"
Lan'er behaved at a loss and was very flustered, in Lan'er's heart, being by the young master's side and taking care of the young master was the happiest thing in her life.
Otherwise, even if she was given a powerful secret book exercise, if she couldn't accompany the young master, she would rather never practice.
"I'm just casually saying that the young master can promise you that no matter where you go in the future, I will take you with me. ”
Seeing Lan'er's panicked appearance, Xue Luo felt pity.
"Thank you, young master!" Lan Er smiled, and the joy in her heart was indescribable when she got the young master's promise.
"Knock knock......" There was a knock on the door suddenly, and Lan'er stopped practicing her sword: "Young master, I'll open the door." ”
There was an old man standing outside the door, who looked to be in his fifties, although his face was full of wrinkles, his eyes were like torches, and he knew at a glance that his martial arts cultivation was not weak.
"Steward Xue, why are you here......" Lan'er's expression was restrained, obviously knowing the person who came.
"Is Young Master Luo at home? ”
"The young master is at home, you wait a while, the slave maid will go and ask the young master. ”
"Yes, go ahead!"
Now is different from the past, Steward Xue no longer dares to rely on the old and sell the old.
Xue Luo listened to the conversation outside, and he naturally knew Steward Xue, who was Xue Tianhe's right-hand man, and his strength was unfathomable.
"Let Steward Xue come in!"
Without waiting for Lan'er to come in and ask for instructions, Xue Luo had already spoken.
Steward Xue was a little bloated, walked slowly, and walked in front of Xue Luo.
"Young Master Luo, the master is invited. ”
"I know, you go back first!"
The old slave retired first. ”
Xue Luo had already expected that when he rose to the occasion, Xue Tianhe would definitely look for him, but he didn't expect that this day would come so quickly.
For Xue Tianhe, Xue Luo has already seen through it, he is indifferent and ruthless, and he only has interests in his heart.
"This day has finally come......," Xue Luo muttered to himself, and then a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth. "I'll go out, you practice your sword at home. ”
"Young master, don't worry!"
Xue Mansion is a closed palace with an area of 8,000 square meters, with thirteen main courtyards in the center, more than 300 small courtyards in the middle ring, and more than 3,000 houses outside.
In addition to the first lineage of the Xue family, there are also twelve side branch lineages.
Among the thirteen main courtyards, the first main courtyard is the place where the Xue family lineage and the patriarch live.
Xue Tianhe is the head of the side branch, and the seventh main courtyard is his mansion.
Xue Luo grew up in Xue Mansion since he was a child, and although he moved away from the Seventh Main Courtyard in his early years, he was familiar with the terrain of Xue Mansion.
Inside the Seventh Main Courtyard.
Xue Tianhe sat in the high hall, next to him was a beautiful woman making tea, and the fragrance filled the hall.
That beautiful woman is the Li family, married to Xue Tianhe at the age of fourteen, and it has been seventeen years.
Due to good maintenance, Li looks about twenty-five or sixteen years old, with a gentle appearance and a good spirit, and who can believe that this is a woman with a heart like a scorpion?
Xue Lie stood respectfully at the side at this time, and Li quietly glanced at him.
Xue Lie comprehended, took the tea, and sent it over respectfully: "Dad, you drink tea." ”
Unfortunately, at this time, Steward Xue walked in and reported in a low voice: "Master, Young Master Luo is here." ”
When Xue Tianhe heard this, he was naturally in no mood to pay attention to Xue Lie anymore, and said to Steward Xue: "Let him come in!"
A trace of resentment flashed in Xue Lie's eyes, Xue Luo has been in a mess these days, which made him go crazy with jealousy as soon as he heard Xue Luo's name.
A sneer appeared on the corner of Li's mouth, but she didn't speak.
She has been married to Xue Tianhe for many years, where would she not know what Xue Tianhe was thinking, this time she called their mother and son over, just to ease the relationship with Xue Luo, but will things really be as simple as Xue Tianhe thought?
"Young Master Luo, the master is already waiting in the hall......"
When Xue Luo entered the door, the guards on both sides looked at Xue Luo's gaze, with a faint hint of fear and respect.
This little young master, whom they used to look down on, has recently sprung up, challenging ten geniuses in a row, but none of them have been defeated, and Xue Luo's strength has won their respect.
"The boy greets his father. ”
Xue Luo gave a salute, although he was dissatisfied with Xue Tianhe, but Xue Luo would still abide by the minimum etiquette.
"Okay, get up!"
Xue Tianhe had a smile in his eyes, and he looked like he was licking the calf.
If it was Xue Luo in the past, he might be moved to tears, because this is the fatherly love and recognition he has been looking forward to for a long time.
But Xue Luo has now seen through Xue Tianhe, for this kind of person who is cold by nature, indifferent and ruthless, and has only interests in his heart, if he cares about feelings, it is a joke.
"This is a token, and in the future, Luo'er will enjoy the treatment of the second-tier genius of the Xue Mansion. ”
"The token was obtained from the head of the family for the sake of my father, and you have to cultivate hard in the future, but don't live up to your father's expectations. ”
"Thank you, father!"
Xue Luo took the token expressionlessly, this is a black token, the token is engraved with a Xue character on one side, and a pattern is carved on the other side.
"In the future, if you have time to walk around the house more, the future of our branch will be shouldered by your brothers, you can ask your brothers to work together, and don't let outsiders see jokes. ”
Xue Tianhe had something to say, and he believed that Xue Luo could understand it.
Xue Luo understood it, but he pretended not to understand, brothers together? Xue Luo sneered in his heart, it was too late to say this!
Xue Lie listened beside him, his face was pale, and his face was hideous with jealousy.
Although Li had an idea in her heart, she was a smart person, so she would not refute Xue Tianhe's words at this time, but helped Xue Tianhe speak.
"Yes, Luo'er, there will be time in the future, get together with Lie'er more, I didn't discipline Lie'er for my mother before, so that there are many misunderstandings between you, I hope you don't go to your heart, if you want, I hope you will move back to live ...... for your mother."
"Mother......" The more Xue Lie listened, the more he felt uncomfortable, and he couldn't help but shout.
"No need, I live well outside, but as for moving back in, I don't dare to climb high. Xue Luo sneered in his heart and said politely.
"Look at what you kid are talking about, we are family. Li said slightly reproachfully.
"Okay! What is the truth, everyone knows it in their hearts, there is no need to say these disgusting words anymore!" Xue Luo's attitude towards the Li family is really disgusting.
Xue Luo's merciless words embarrassed the Li family.
Xue Tianhe saw that the atmosphere was not right, and hurriedly changed the topic.
"Since Luo'er is unwilling, then forget it! There is still half a year, that is, the family martial arts meeting once every three years, for my father, I hope you will cultivate hard, and win glory for us in half a year!"
"I don't have the slightest interest in the family martial arts!" Xue Luo refused without hesitation,
Xue Tianhe's eyes narrowed, and Xue Luo's soft and hard attitude made him angry.
"Unless...... My father promised me four conditions!"
As a disciple of the Xue family, Xue Luo certainly understood the importance of the family martial arts.
Huanghe Town is so big, and there are so many cultivation resources, which are basically divided equally among the four major families.
And the Xue clan has a population of thousands, and there are twelve side branches, and the side branches with stronger power naturally want to allocate more cultivation resources, but in this way, the other side branches will not agree.
Therefore, since 200 years ago, the family has stipulated that an appraisal competition will be held every three years, and young people under the age of 18 will participate.
And the higher the ranking, the more cultivation resources you can get, which is why Xue Tianhe attaches so much importance to the family martial arts.
