Few people in the Tang Sect would guess the old lady's thoughts. On the one hand, it's because it's useless, the old lady only cares about your strength, ability, and potential, and in Tangjiabao, small tricks like pandering to horses are as boring as fiddling with dolls and playing with wine in the wolf pack.
And the most important thing is that few people can guess the old lady's thoughts.
When the old lady announced that it was their turn to select the inner disciples of their generation, Tang chuckled and had only one voice in his heart: I finally waited for this day.
This is the first step to become a famous disciple of the Tang Sect and become a peerless secret weapon. In the Tang family, only the best disciples in each room can be personally taught by the old lady and the old lady, and they will eventually become the backbone of the Tang family, and the best of them are the protagonists of countless legends about the Tang family.
Don chuckled and never thought he would lose the election. As a rule, there is one place in each room, regardless of the number of people in the room. And he was the only one left in the four rooms. What's more, he was originally the most talented and hardworking among the disciples of the Tang family's generation, and his heart for the Tang family was also the hottest and purest. He can't be selected, who else can?
Even if there is a sudden addition of an elder brother now, this elder brother seems to be quite taken care of by the old lady, but Tang Xiaoxiao still has absolute confidence in the position of this inner disciple. Even if he is indeed talented in martial arts, but that kind of character who does not know the so-called is definitely not worthy of being a real disciple of the Tang Sect, the old lady is just using him to inspire other disciples in the family.
Moreover, this elder brother is not interested in the identity of an inner disciple at all. Even after receiving the order of the old lady, they each went out to walk the rivers and lakes for three months to do the assessment. Tang Chengcheng just found a small town outside Tangjiabao and started drinking and listening to the play, and then traveled around the mountains and rivers to taste all kinds of Shuzhou snacks.
So Tang chuckled and was really very confident, even if his actions in the Tianhuo Faction's rudder failed. He didn't steal the stone egg that contained the Vermilion Bird Spiritual Fire, and he wasn't too worried. He believed that the quota of this inner disciple must belong to him, just as the sun must be bright and the night must be dark.
But in fact, the sun sometimes does not shine, and it does not necessarily get dark at night.
When Tang chuckled and returned to Tangjiabao, he had just met his brother Tang Chengcheng who had also come back and was carried back. It turned out that when he went to Lushui City in the south of Shuzhou to taste the soy sauce beef and Jiuzhuan Liquor there, an inexplicable epidemic was rising in Lushui City. Dozens of young men and women died of illness, and he checked on a whim, only to find that these men and women were assassinated by drugs, and they were not really dead. It is a kind of fake death that is difficult for ordinary people to distinguish, and those who are buried as corpses by their families will be secretly dug up and disappeared within a few days. Under the touch of the vine, he actually found the main altar of the Demon Gate Phantom Demon Sect hidden in the city, and those men and women were all used as blood food for demon beasts. He didn't even notify the other righteous path people or the Tang Sect, he just carried his Xuanyang Sword and angrily broke into the Phantom Demon Sect. Killing the corpses and the sea of blood, the heads of the people were rolling, forcing the sect master of the Phantom Demon Sect to flee with the demon wolf bรจi raised by human blood. He also ignored his own serious injuries and chased him all the way to the top of Emei Jinding. Kill the sect master of the Phantom Demon Sect and the demon wolf together, and then fall to the ground with all his strength.
This battle shocked Shuzhou black and white. In the end, the battle of Emei Jinding attracted several righteous leaders to visit in person, and the name of Tang Justice resounded throughout Shuzhou. So they couldn't wait for Tang Cheng to recover from his injuries. The old lady announced that this time the inner disciple of the fourth room was him.
When Tang chuckled and first heard the news, the whole person was completely stupid, and it took a long time to come back to his senses.
He couldn't believe that the old lady would choose a person who didn't have the slightest Tang Sect flavor and didn't think about things at all as an inner disciple, and this person himself didn't have the slightest will, and that action was just the result of his own interest. Could it be that the Tang Sect still cares about that little bit of righteous reputation that doesn't hurt? What is his hard work, wishes, blood and sweat for so many years?
What's more, he could faintly guess that the Phantom Demon Sect or something might be a force secretly cultivated in the sect. Tang Jiabao has been operating in Shuzhou for hundreds of years, and a branch of the Demon Sect has been lurking in it for decades, how could it be unaware? It is even possible that it is simply an attachment to a certain house. Tang Chengcheng is making trouble like this, and this secret force is undoubtedly useless.
But that's the case, the old lady actually accepted him as an inner disciple.
Why?
These two sentences kept hovering in Tang's chuckling head, occupying all the places. He seemed to be trapped in a dream constructed by these two sentences all day long, he was not convinced, he couldn't figure it out, he couldn't accept it. Finally, in the ancestral hall, at the ceremony when the old lady officially awarded the selected people to the inner disciples, he suddenly opened his mouth and roared: I am not convinced, why?
The old lady never had to explain why, let alone why. And daring to roar at the old lady in the ancestral hall, this kind of disobedient behavior does not need to be explained. The old lady just frowned, and two uncles who couldn't even see their faces clearly jumped out and restrained Tang from chuckling, waiting for him was the same family law as the previous punishment of Tang Cheng - a three-month water prison.
Why didn't the old lady even move his finger when he was to me. This was the only thought in Tang Xiaoxiao's mind at that time.
The water dungeon was very dark, except for a little light when a little food was delivered every day, the rest of the time it was pitch black, and it was so dark that it could not be seen day or night. At first, Tang chuckled and was angry, and he would cry, but soon he had no strength, and half of the time every day the ice water that soaked in his throat was enough to soak anyone in any fire, and if he didn't use all his strength to maintain his sobriety, to resist this cold, people's thinking and vitality would soon be swallowed up and assimilated by this darkness and cold.
Three months later, when Tang Xiaoxiao was taken out of the water prison, he only had one breath left. At this time, no one could see a trace of anger and injustice on his face, but this was not gone, but was pressed in the deepest part of his heart by the darkness and coldness of these three months. The compression solidified into a pitch-black, viscous thing, like oil underground, quietly lurking there.
After coming back to his senses. Tang chuckled and didn't say anything to anyone, but quietly left Tangjiabao by himself.
Maybe it was a coincidence that Tang Chengcheng happened to be sent to other places by the old lady that day. So Tang chuckled and didn't see Tang Chengcheng, and he didn't know if this elder brother, who had been accepted as an inner disciple and had become the mainstay of the Tang family, would have any changes. Occasionally, he would imagine that only the black, sticky, intelligible resentment or something would come with it. Flood a qiฤ in the past.
After six years, when he saw this big brother again, Tang chuckled and realized that he had not changed at all.
Although the appearance is very wolf, the beard is unkempt. The sloppy appearance almost makes people unable to see his original appearance, but this opening, as soon as he makes a move, completely fits with the shadow in the depths of his mind. This is still the one from the perspective of the children of the Tang family, who is completely clueless. I don't know the so-called illegitimate child, Tang is just.
No, he is now an inner disciple personally taught by Old Lady Tang, representing the four young men of the Tang family in the fourth room of Tangjiabao. Don justice. Along with this thought, there was also the dark coldness in Tang Xiaoxiao's heart.
"Shuzhou Tangjiabao Fourth Young Master Tang Cheng"
Mr. Lin's voice was trembling. It's not that I'm afraid. It's just pure awe and excitement to the extreme. As a general dart head who walks the rivers and lakes, the news must be well-informed. He naturally knew the name of the four young men of the Tang Sect for a long time, and for this small dart game struggling to survive on the rivers and lakes, the children of the world-famous family are like tigers in the eyes of ants, and they are simply looking up to another world.
And this tiger actually rescued the ant, and it is easy to understand how difficult it is for this ant to look up and be excited. Everyone in the game could not suppress the surprise and excitement on their faces. Only Don chuckled without expression on his face.
Ignoring the panicked horse thieves around him as the tide receded, Tang Chengcheng walked in front of everyone who seemed to be stunned, his eyes first swept around everyone, and then stopped on Lin Xiaoyan's body, and finally landed on Tang Xiaoxiao and smiled: "What a gentle and virtuous little girl, the young man has good swordsmanship and good vision." โ
Lin Xiaoyan's face was as red as a ripe apple, and Mr. Lin on the side immediately hugged his fists and came over to salute: "In Xiaxuzhou, there is Lin Shengzhi, the head of the De Dart Bureau, thank you to the fourth young master for helping this time, and the great grace will not be forgotten." I have heard the name of the Tang family in Shuzhou for a long time, and I know it at first sight today."
"Forget it, the polite words of the rivers and lakes will be exempted. But I can't get used to the group of horse thieves bullying the widows. Tang Cheng waved his hand and smiled.
"The fourth young master has an extraordinary bearing, and he is really the only hero who can be true. This is the true style of the family. Mr. Lin sighed with emotion. It's really not a sycophant, it's that he really thinks so. Even if he had seen this man eating noodles on a roadside stall before, this man was now as sloppy and casual as just now. But the same people with the same words, with different identities will also give people a completely different feeling, especially when these people are used to looking up.
Tang Chengcheng didn't care, just looked at Tang and chuckled, but his eyes didn't show anything superfluous, as if he was simply interested in this young swordsman: "This little brother's swordsmanship looks like a powerful aura, quite extraordinary, I don't know which school and which faction is high?"
"I practiced it myself. Tang chuckled and looked at him coldly, and there was nothing superfluous in his eyes.
"Ah Xiao is the dart master of our dart game, he only started to practice swords five years ago, and his swordsmanship is all figured out by himself, and the head of the Penglai Sword School is full of praise after seeing his sword talent. Mr. Lin lost no time in adding in and explaining to Tang Justice. "Ah Xiao was seriously injured before, and he was rescued by my little girl, and he forgot all about the previous things, and his temperament was a little cold and weird, so he was like this to everyone. Before, the head of the Penglai Sword Sect wanted to accept him as a disciple, but he didn't go. Please also ask the fourth young master not to be surprised. โ
Of course, Tang Chengcheng was not surprised, but was slightly stunned and nodded repeatedly: "Only your own swordsmanship is a good swordsmanship." It's rare for the little brother to understand this. โ
Except for Don's chuckle, everyone couldn't help but be moved by this. Although they had long known that the young dart master of their dart game was extremely talented, but if they could be recognized by the fourth young master of the Tang Sect, the meaning was completely different. It turns out that there is such a far-reaching reason why he is reluctant to go to the apprenticeship?
Tang chuckled and didn't care about the reaction of the people around him and Tang Chengcheng in front of him, jumped straight up and took down the rainbow shadow sword that was bounced on the beam, and then walked in front of a few horse thieves who were trying to move the hedgehog-like big boss, waved his sword to drive the horse thieves away, and then put the sword on the almost invisible neck of the big boss.
"You can't kill me, I'm" There was no expression on the big boss's face with only his eyes and nose exposed, but the cold sweat like a stream that kept flowing out from the cracks of the leather armor made people wonder if his incontinent organ grew on this head. I don't know if he was afraid, or if he was hurt by the hundreds of arrow wounds behind him.
Tang chuckled and didn't seem interested in paying attention to what he was, but said coldly, "If you don't want to die, answer my question." What I ask, what you answer, don't say any superfluous nonsense. You should understand what I'm talking nonsense. โ
"I know you mean I know I know" The big boss looks like a pig, but he is not really a pig. And when people don't want to die, no matter what kind of potential can be stimulated.
"Did the cavalry of the White Tiger Army collude with you before?"
"Yes, yes. โ
"You dare to appear here unscrupulously, not afraid that the White Tiger Army will know?"
"I have our brothers in the White Tiger Army"
"Where did they deceive that wild Taoist priest who was with us?"
"It's not a lie, it's really brought to the White Tiger Army. โ
"What are you taking him there for?"
"I, I" The big boss had a slight hesitation in his eyes. "I don't know, but I heard that General Linghu really wants to see him"
"Don't lie to me. Don chuckled and squatted down, the hesitation of the leader of the horse thieves just now did not hide from his eyes. He grabbed the two crossbow arrows stuck in the back of the big boss, twisted them, pounded them, and slowly pulled them outward, slowly spinning them as he pulled them back. The big boss howled like a pig. He was still writhing at first, but as soon as he moved, he caused more arrow wounds on his back, and the pain was even worse.
"To be honest, otherwise I'll slowly pull out the arrows from your back one by one. Anyway, you have a lot of meat, and you don't necessarily die. Tang chuckled and threw away the arrows in his hand that still had some shredded meat in his hand, and said coldly.
Your support is my biggest motivation. )
