Chapter 5 Perseverance Competition
When the two gritted their teeth and climbed to three-tenths of the way, Haozhuang finally took the lead and couldn't help but stop.
He turned his body and put it in a big character to block the way forward of Nanchan, with a smug smile on the corner of his mouth, and looked delicately at the son of Nan Bohou who was covered with dust.
"Thief, you, you give me, let, let" He said a few words breathlessly, but before he could finish speaking, he lay down on the stone steps with a clatter, splashing dust in the sky.
The precious brocade robe was covered with gray-white dust, and he looked at Haozhuang who was resting on the road ahead with big characters, and a trace of attention quietly appeared in his eyes.
He was the most favored young grandson of Nan Bohou, and he showed great wisdom among his brothers and sisters from an early age. According to Wu who checked the bloodline, he has the blood of the ancient peacock in his body, and if no one competes with him for the power of the destiny of heaven in the future, he will have the opportunity to return to his ancestor as an ancient phoenix ancestor who is only born once every 10,000 years.
His grandfather told him that he should not bow his head at any time, because peacocks are born proud, let alone the more noble ancient peacocks.
Therefore, wherever he went, he always held his head high. There are few times when he looks at others equally, but now he can only look up at children of the same age who are standing in front of him with big letters.
This was the first time he had experienced a sense of frustration, for whatever reason, the boy in front of him had gone further than him, and he had a feeling that perhaps after recovering, he would still not be able to surpass the seemingly ordinary, but very special child in front of him.
"Hey, what's your name?" After a long time, Nanchan's calm voice sounded in Haozhuang's ears.
Haozhuang was looking at the white clouds floating in the sky, praying that the white clouds would float above him to shield him from the sun. Nanchan, who heard the side on the side, asked his name, and was stunned at first. Thinking of the oath he made in front of his father, he grinned and said, "It's good if you call me Zhuang." ”
Nan Chan looked at the peer in front of him who was reluctant to reveal his surname with some curiosity, but he pursed his lips and said, "This gentleman's name is Nan Chan, boy." In the future, if you are bullied in the martial arts, remember to report my name. ”
Haozhuang showed a sneer, and said, "Then let's wait for you to overtake me first! Hey, someone is coming, I'll go first!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the whole person got up from the ground and walked towards the top of the mountain with a gentle step.
Nanchan was slightly stunned, and glanced at a tiger-headed child, who was learning from him and Haotian. Climb up with gecko-like hands and feet.
His complexion changed suddenly, and a hint of flushing appeared on his proud face when he remembered his image just now. Until Haozhuang felt that it was boring to be in a hurry, and turned around and called him: "Hey, Nanchan, shouldn't you be able to do this?"
Nanchan reacted at this time, got up from the ground with a grunt, and patted the dust on his body. stroked his face with his dirty sleeves, and glued the clear snot above his nostrils: "You are less proud." Makes you look good for a while. ”
After saying that, he chased after Haozhuang, who was standing in place and waiting for him, step by step.
When he was two steps behind Haozhuang, he found that Haozhuang had already climbed to the top of the mountain with short legs.
Although it was possible to rest and continue walking, many children gave up when they had reached a tenth of the climb, and some of them gritted their teeth and ran halfway up the mountain, looking at the peaks that reached into the sky. I glanced at the foot of the mountain with no way back, and there was a sad expression on my face, but it was neither up nor down.
Nanchan and Haozhuang had only the last two-tenths of the way left at this time, and both seemed to feel that it was a bit of a shame to lie on the ground and hurry. Therefore, in the next competition, it is very wise to choose moderation.
Resting together, setting off together, Nanchan always maintained a two-step gap with Haozhuang, no matter how hard he tried, Haozhuang in front of him was always like a mountain in front of him.
"Hey, it's the last part of the road, do you dare to fight with me fairly?" Under the moonlight, watching Haozhuang continue to step forward after resting, regardless of the hunger in his stomach, a trace of anxiety appeared on his face. If the dignified son of Nan Bohou loses to a commoner, how will he meet people in the future!
Haozhuang turned his head and glanced at Nanchan with a pair of eyes that also shone in the dark night: "Hey, didn't we set off from the foot of the mountain together?"
A hint of flushing appeared on Nanchan's face, and he glanced at him with some resentment, and said, "You have cheated, do you dare to wait for me to start together?"
Haozhuang didn't answer him out loud, just turned his head to look at the young man who was crawling forward like a gecko, bowed his head and handed Nanchan an idiot-like look, and then walked towards the top of the mountain without looking back, and unconsciously, the speed under his feet was a little faster.
Nanchan glanced at Haozhuang without tears, and even if he stomped his foot, kicked a piece of gravel upside down and flew out, and then walked towards the mountain without looking back.
"Ouch. Just after he had walked a few steps, he suddenly heard a scream. Turning his head to look at the child who was moving forward like a gecko, he felt a little weak in his heart, and his steps unconsciously sped up a little.
Above the sky, a person stepped on a huge divine bird and watched the two of them sprint towards the last part of the journey, a faint smile appeared on his face, and he muttered: "I didn't expect that this session would have a Tianjiao who can overpower the young master, it's really good." However, the last ten steps are not so easy to climb, and perseverance alone is not enough. ”
Not long after, looking at Haozhuang, who was in the lead, his eyes widened, and he looked at the child who seemed to be unaffected in the slightest, but he almost bit off his tongue.
"Impossible, impossible, how could a mere child not be affected by the spiritual test set by Nan Bohou himself in the slightest. No, could it be that the spirit stone steps are broken? No, I must confirm it. Just as he was about to fly down the clouds and walk the spiritual stone steps himself, Na Nanchan had already walked before the last ten steps.
Originally, he was just a little tired, and when he stepped into the tenth step, he was a little unwilling to step into the tenth step, but he was instantly struck by thunder, sweat came out of his forehead, and he looked at Haozhuang, who had reached the end and was looking at him with a puzzled face, but he was a little unwilling to take another step forward.
Looking at his gritted teeth, the old man above the sky stopped his movements, and looked at Haozhuang who was looking at Nanchan with a puzzled expression with a somewhat solemn expression, not knowing what he was thinking.
Although he seemed to be suffering from some inhuman torture, in the end, Nanchan still walked to Haozhuang's side out of breath, and he sat on the ground with his buttocks, without the appearance of Nan Bohou at all. Haozhuang also sat beside him, didn't say a word, just quietly waited for the arrival of the follow-up.
After a long time, Nanchan finally regained a trace of strength, and he asked Haozhuang, "The last ten orders, how can you not be affected at all?"
Haozhuang took a step towards the foot of the mountain with some doubts, then stood there quietly and asked, "Is there any difference between this place and the stone steps in front?"
After saying that, he walked back again, and Nanchan was dumbfounded.
The tiger-headed child still maintained the posture of a gecko and appeared in the field of vision of the two, looked up at Haozhuang and Nanchan who were looking at him with red faces for some reason, revealing a mouthful of snow-white teeth, and then continued to crawl forward with an excited expression, pouting his little ass like a hunting dog.
Haozhuang coughed dryly, pulled Nanchan aside, and at the same time secretly patted himself on the dust that had not been cleaned up, at first he didn't feel how to be ashamed, and Yingying was proud of the idea of speeding up the progress of mountaineering, but he didn't want to see the child crawling with his ass now, and he actually became blushing like Nanchan.
When the child faced the last ten steps of the stairs, he was also constipated, as if he had been struck by lightning. There is no more 'coquettishness' like the original beagle.
When a little Lori appeared in the field of vision of the two with a difficult pestle and an emerald green piccolo, the child climbed the last step of the stairs, lying on the ground without any image, panting heavily, and shouting: "Mother, why are these last few steps so difficult to climb!"
Haozhuang and Nanchan glanced at each other, looking at his difficult look, it was really difficult to 'climb'.
Nanchan was not very interested in this person who was not as good as them, but Haozhuang was very interested, and after a while, Fang stepped forward and pulled him up from the ground, and said, "My name is Zhuang, what is your name?"
The boy touched his head and said, "Your name is simple." ”
For this little friend who looks honest, Haozhuang is obviously much friendlier than Nanchan, and the two chatted as if no one was around. Jane is just like his name, without the slightest scheming, in fact, it is just a five-year-old child, and after they talk a little, Haozhuang will know his identity.
As a child of a commoner, Jane, who was selected for the assessment of the Southern Martial Arts Academy because he was valued by the nobles passing by, did not understand many common-sense issues. Haozhuang, who has always pestered Haotian to ask some Kyushu stories since he was sensible and literate, opened the conversation box and told Jian Ting the secrets he knew.
Although Nanchan on the side often interrupted to correct his mistakes, he still didn't care about doing his own thing, selling his shallow knowledge like telling a story. (To be continued.) )
