Since he chose to stay, he couldn't eat idle food, after lunch, although Luo Xudong repeatedly persuaded him to rest for two days to recuperate his body before going to herd cattle, Wu Zheng still led the big green cow to the Nanxi in the south of the village.

knows the habits of the big green cow too well, Wu Zheng doesn't have to care about it at all. When he came to the stream, he wrapped the rope around the horns of the ox, and let the big green oxen graze freely by the stream. However, I still learned the lesson of the last time, so I chose a soft beach where you can see the big green cow at any time, and lay down carefully.

The wound in the chest must be slowly healed, and it is impossible to do heavy work in a short time, even if it is the stunt of throwing stones and hitting rabbits, it will not be able to do it for a while.

Wu Zheng had long been thinking about the dark red bamboo tube in his arms.

Turning his head to look around, he saw that there was no one nearby, so he reached out and took it out of his arms.

I held it in my hand and pondered for a long time, and I didn't know where to open it. Although he didn't want to destroy the only item left by his father, Wu Zheng, who had no choice, finally knocked the bamboo tube open with a stone.

The bamboo tube was originally not big, only the thickness of his wrist, so Wu Zheng didn't expect many things in it. Sure enough, there was only a small roll of paper.

Carefully spread out the paper roll, and there was still something inside.

"What is this?"

Ignoring the handwriting on the paper, Wu Zheng was first attracted by a small object wrapped in the paper roll. A diamond-shaped object made of white jade, the size of a thumb.

On closer inspection, a single word looms out of the diamond-shaped object. After carefully identifying it for a while, Wu Zheng was sure that the word should be a "Ling" character.

This can't help but remind Wu Zheng of the "Lingxiao Nine Styles" obtained from the depths of the cave, on the four walls of the pit, and the unusually scribbled word "Lingyun" at the end of the martial arts secrets.

Does the diamond-shaped jade in his hand have anything to do with "Nine Styles of the Sky"?

Wu Zheng could think clearly, and hurriedly unfolded the paper scroll, hoping to find the answer from it.

"Zheng'er, Wu'er. When you see this bamboo tube, the Father is no longer alive. ”

Wow, Wu Zheng couldn't help but cry loudly.

Although after meeting Peter Pan Wu Liying in Wujiabao Dongshan, Wu Zheng had already vaguely guessed that his father must be more than lucky, but he didn't want to believe that his father had passed away.

first cried loudly, and then turned into a suppressed sob, and after a long time, Wu Zheng held back his tears and continued to read.

"Zheng'er, don't be sad, who can live without dying in a lifetime? As long as you die well, it's worth it. It's just that grandma is old and Zheng'er is young, so how can she not worry about her father?"

Once again, I couldn't help but shed tears, and the tears fell one by one onto the paper in my hand.

"The reason why my father wants to keep this bamboo tube is to tell Zheng'er where Zheng'er is going, and second, to tell Zheng'er a secret about your mother's life experience that you have never met. ”

Not wanting tears to soak the only handwriting left by his father, Wu Zheng had to wipe away his tears and try to hold back the grief in his heart.

"This trip for my father is to expose the unsightly deeds of the scum Wu Jizong, Wu Jixue, Wu Youren and others in the clan. If it goes well, the father will naturally return safely. If someone tells Zheng'er that Zheng'er is a bamboo tube hidden in the kang cave for his father, it means that his father has not succeeded, and he has died in the hands of Sanwu. ”

What Wu Zheng didn't expect was that his father Wu Lipeng didn't explain in it what he said about Wu Jizong, Wu Jixue, Wu Youren and others. Instead, the topic changed and turned to his own life experience with his mother.

"Zheng'er, remember, you are not your father's biological flesh and blood. ”

Wu Zheng's head couldn't help buzzing, no wonder Wu Lishan scolded himself like that that night, this turned out to be true, how could it be? !

"When you met your mother, you were already a two-month-old fetus in your mother's womb. Remember, your mother's surname is Ning Yunyan, and she is the daughter of Ning Zezhong, the secretary of the military department of the dynasty. And your biological father is Xiao Ying, the son of Xiao Pengju, who is nicknamed 'Golden-winged Dapeng'. ”

My father still didn't say why I met my mother, and why my mother followed my father back to Wujiabao and married my father.

"Zheng'er, the right and wrong of it is that my father doesn't want to tell you. Moreover, the reason why Zheng'er is not allowed to practice martial arts is not only your mother's last wish, but also your father's decision. When your mother was alive, we had already negotiated that if Zheng'er could make a difference in her studies, she could win a reputation and become a petty official and eunuch. If not, then simply be a happy countryman, marry a wife and have children, and spend your life like an ordinary person.

Therefore, before her death, your mother repeatedly told you that when you are sensible, it is best not to tell you about the life history of your mother and son. If you have to say it, it's okay, but you are not allowed to go to the Xiao family to recognize your ancestors and return to your ancestors, let alone your grandfather's family.

Just thinking about it for his father, he decided to leave this choice to Zheng'er. After all, in life, it's okay to return to your ancestors without recognizing your ancestors, and you don't know who your biological father is, so you always feel unbearable.

As for this diamond-shaped mark, it is related to a shocking secret of today's martial arts. This is the only relic left to you by your mother, and I hope Zheng'er will keep it well. ”

At this point, the handwriting on the paper has become noticeably a little unsmooth. Although Wu Zheng couldn't guess why for a while, the next paragraph still reminded Wu Zheng of the entanglements and contradictions in his father's heart when he wrote the following paragraph.

"Zheng'er, according to your mother's meaning, the following passage should not be told to you. It's just that the father always feels that people live by chance. Some people try their best to achieve their goals, but in the end, they may not be able to achieve their goals. However, some people may never compete, but they can always inadvertently get some kind of opportunity. This is also the true intention of giving you the name 'Wu Zheng' for your father.

The husband is not in dispute, so he can not fight with him; Zheng'er must remember, don't be obsessed with the shocking secrets of martial arts, don't deliberately look for anything, and don't show this diamond-shaped mark to anyone, not your loved ones.

Originally, my father wanted to destroy it, but one is the only relic left by your mother, and the other is still a little bit of a distraction in my heart. Alas, being a father is also an ordinary martial arts practitioner, so it is inevitable that there will be a sense of non-division.

As a father, I thought, if there is an arrangement in the dark, so that Zheng'er can unintentionally get the truth of that shocking secret without taking any risks, why not?

Zheng'er, thank you for being filial to your father in front of your grandmother. The reason why you can only open the bamboo tube after your grandmother dies is that you have selfish intentions for your father. Although he knew that Zheng'er had been a good boy since he was a child, he was still worried that once he knew his life experience, he would be unwilling.

Okay, that's all there is to it. If Wujiabao can't tolerate you, you can go to Shuntian Mansion to find an aunt named Tie Xianniang, just report your father's name, and you will naturally get her care.

Father Wu Lipeng is a masterpiece. ”

After reading it, Wu Zheng couldn't help crying for a long time again, and after gradually stopping his tears, Wu Zheng's brain couldn't stop.

No wonder when I was a child, I always pestered my father to practice martial arts, but my father just didn't agree, and even pestered my father again and beat myself twice. That was the only time Wu Zheng was beaten by his father in his memory.

Although there is not a single word mentioning "pain" or "love" in the words left by his father, Wu Zheng can still feel the heavy father's love.

Obviously, the mother's departure, so much so that she was united with her father, was obviously related to the struggle in the rivers and lakes. It is precisely because of this that he saw the sinister nature of the rivers and lakes clearly that he did not allow himself to practice martial arts and did not let himself fall into the strife and cruelty of the rivers and lakes.

"But, Daddy, Mother, do you know? Daddy, you died at their hands, Grandma also died at their hands, and Zheng'er almost died at their hands. As Daddy said, who can hide from the freedom in the dark?"

The more Wu Zheng thought about it, the more conflicted he became.

Although because of his young age and because he has not practiced martial arts, he does not know how majestic the so-called "Golden-winged Dapeng" is, but he still understands the words "martial arts master". There is also the "Military Department Shangshu", which is a first-class official under the prime minister in the imperial court.

One is his own grandfather, and the other is his own grandfather, but he can't protect his mother.

Even if he didn't know the real reason why his mother came to Wujiabao, Wu Zheng would inevitably blame the people of the Xiao Ning family in his heart.

Even if his father and mother don't tell him, Wu Zheng has already made up his mind that he will never recognize his ancestors and his grandfather.
