Chen Hao looked at his brother Chen Xi anxiously, and he didn't dare to come out.
The elder brother took care of himself when he was a child, ate, sleeped, and sent himself to the best martial arts hall in Songyan City to practice, and the hard-earned Yuan Shi was also spent on himself, but the elder brother was never willing to use the Yuan Shi that cost a little.
Chen Hao knew that his brother seemed to be cold, but he was actually very good-hearted, and he was even more attentive to himself and his grandfather, but why did everyone laugh at him?
Facial paralysis Chen, broom star......
As soon as he thought of these vicious nicknames, Chen Hao's heart was full of anger, and he wanted to tear the mouths of those who laughed at his brother apart.
"Hmph, as long as they scold my brother again, I will beat them!"
Chen Hao clenched his small fists and secretly decided in his heart.
"Let's go home and eat first. ”
Chen Xi woke up from the silence, took a deep breath, patted Chen Hao's shoulder, pushed open the dilapidated door, and walked into the house.
"Brother, don't you blame me?"
Chen Hao was stunned for a moment, and grinned happily: "Okay, brother, my stomach is almost hungry." ”
......
In the room, dim pine oil lamps flickered with a dim glow, illuminating the cramped, cramped wooden house.
An old man with a sparse head sat quietly at the dinner table, his face was scrawny, his face was wrinkled, and his cloudy eyes exuded a decadent aura.
The old man's name is Chen Tianli, and he was also a powerful figure in Songyan City in the past, but unfortunately, with the destruction of the Chen family, he was also completely abolished because of the old illness, and he became an ordinary old man.
"Grandpa. ”
Chen Xi sat silently at the table, looking at a plate of sauerkraut and three bowls of white rice on the table, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, he was still too stupid, if he could earn more yuan stones every day, his grandfather and younger brother would not have to suffer.
"Eat. Chen Tianli's voice was hoarse and low, "After eating, I have something to say." ”
Chen Xi was stunned and nodded: "Hmm." ”
The three of them had a lot of fun eating, Chen Xi and his grandfather only ate white rice, and gave a small plate of pickles to Chen Hao, the little guy knew that it was useless to refuse, so he just buried himself in eating, and repeated a vow made a long time ago in his heart: "Grandpa, brother, when I become stronger in cultivation, I will definitely give you all the best food in the world, and never eat these damn pickles again!"
After eating, Chen Hao obediently packed up the dishes and chopsticks, and walked out of the house with a wooden sword, he wanted to practice swords, he had to seize every minute to make himself stronger!
"How heavy has the cultivation of Zixiao Gong been?" Chen Tianli listened to the sound of Huo Huo practicing his sword from outside the window, and his old face showed a touch of relief.
"Zixiao Gong" is the ancestral Qi refining method of the Chen family, with a total of eighteen levels, which records in detail the cultivation methods from the ninth level of the day after tomorrow to the nine layers of the innate level.
"It's still the thirteenth. Even when Chen Xi was talking to his grandfather, his face was still as cold as before, and that calm and wooden aura seemed to never change.
"Oh. ”
Chen Tianli nodded, noncommittal, but there was a touch of complicated feelings in his heart.
He both loves and hates this grandson, since Chen Xi was born, the entire Chen family has had bad news - the family was destroyed, Chen Xi's biological mother abandoned the family, and Chen Xi's father stayed away with hatred......
What is especially odious is that the Su family of Longyuan City actually tore up the marriage contract they had made before in front of everyone in Songyan City, making Chen Tianli's old face completely disgraced, if it weren't for the fact that his two grandchildren were young and had no one to raise them, he would have wanted to end his life by suicide!
Sometimes he suspects that his grandson is a bad luck broom star on the top of his head, as rumored to be. However, he quickly abandoned this idea, and there were only three of them left in the entire Chen family, plus his body was declining, and he could only barely make a living by relying on Chen Xi to help people make talismans.
In other words, it is precisely because of Chen Xi's presence that over the years, their family has not been so downtrodden that they have been in the company of beggars, and the youngest grandson Chen Hao has entered the famous Tianxing Martial Arts Hall in Songyan City to cultivate under Chen Xi's hard work.
Thinking of this, Chen Tianli felt a warmth in his heart, no matter how unlucky he was, Xiaoxi was also his grandson and Chen's biological flesh and blood!
"Over the years, I have wronged you. ”
Chen Tianli sighed and said: "I let Xiao Hao eat well, dress well, and even enter the martial arts hall to practice martial arts, but let you work hard to make a living, and you didn't end up in the slightest, grandpa, I ...... I'm sorry for you. ”
Chen Xi's body stiffened, and the sourness that had been suppressed in the depths of his heart for many years was about to move, he hurriedly took a deep breath, forced himself to suppress this sourness, shook his head and said: "You are old and old, and Xiaohao is young and ignorant, these things should naturally be done by me." ”
Chen Tianli smiled and waved his hand: "Don't mention these." ”
Chen Xi nodded and remained silent.
He is already withdrawn and wooden, not good at words, and has often been ridiculed and ridiculed by the people around him over the years, which makes him more and more introverted, and he would rather act in silence than say a word of nonsense.
"The Thousand Swords Sect of Longyuan City will open the mountain gate in half a month to recruit disciples, and I plan to take Xiao Hao to give it a try. After pondering for a long time, Chen Tianli suddenly spoke.
Chen Xi was stunned and said, "It's okay, leaving Songyan City is more beneficial to Xiaohao's growth." ”
Chen Tianli couldn't help but ask, "You...... You can't blame grandpa for being biased, right?"
Chen Xi shook his head: "I listen to my grandfather's arrangement." ”
Chen Tianli looked at his grandson's face carefully, as if he wanted to see something from it, and then to his disappointment, Chen Xi's appearance was the same from beginning to end, not moving at all, like a stiff log.
"In the public, he does not lose his widowhood, and his words are more and more silent, and his temperament is stubborn and tenacious, and he does not know whether it is good or bad, alas. ”
Chen Tianli sighed deeply in his heart and got up to go back to the house.
......
Early the next morning.
When Chen Xi got up, it was just dawn, he washed with cold water, and as soon as he walked out of the house, he saw his younger brother Chen Hao practicing swords.
Brush! Brush!
The wooden sword swayed, making a rapid sound of breaking the sky, Chen Hao held the sword in his right hand, and his thin body jumped flexibly, chopping, cutting, picking, stabbing, and slashing, practicing swordsmanship meticulously.
His little face was already covered with sweat, but there was a firm color between his immature eyebrows, and the wooden sword in his hand did not tremble at all, calm and skillful.
Chen Xi watched silently for a moment, did not disturb his younger brother, and after hurriedly preparing the meal, he did not make talismans as usual, but quickly ran towards Zhang's grocery store.
"Ah, facial paralysis Chen is here again!"
"Alas, I originally thought that I would not run into him when I came to work in the morning, but I still bumped into him, which is really unlucky. ”
In Zhang's grocery store, the new Fu apprentices saw Chen Xi walk in and avoided him, looking like they were afraid of bad luck.
"Uncle Zhang, I want to borrow a hundred yuan stones first, I don't know if it's okay?" Where did Chen Xi have the heart to pay attention to these guys who sneered at him, and went straight to the counter and made his request to Zhang Dayong.
Zhang Dayong was puzzled: "Chen Xi, is something wrong?" Say it, maybe I can help." ”
Chen Xi has been helping his grocery store make talismans for more than five years, and he has never borrowed money from him, but today he suddenly wants to borrow a hundred yuan stones, he naturally feels very puzzled, and plans to help this little guy if he can.
Chen Xi heard the meaning of care in Zhang Dayong's words, his heart warmed, and he shook his head and said, "I didn't have any trouble, I just wanted to buy something." ”
Zhang Dayong suddenly took out a spirit jade and said, "Oh, it's enough, if it's not enough, I'll lend you more." ”
"That's enough, thank you Uncle Zhang, I'll change it to you soon. ”
One spirit jade is roughly equivalent to a hundred yuan stones, and it is still only high, not low. After Chen Xi took the spirit jade, he turned around and left, walking in a hurry.
"Strange, this kid is usually extremely frugal in order to make a living for his family, and he never spends money recklessly, what's going on today?"
Zhang Dayong watched Chen Xi's back disappear outside the store, puzzled.
......
Bailian Hall, located in the bustling street in the center of Songyan City, specializes in selling weapons and equipment required by some monks, with a grand scale and is also quite famous in Songyan City.
After Chen Xi went in, a piece of spirit jade was spent in less than a quarter of an hour, and it didn't hurt at all, but he was relieved.
When I got home, it was almost noon, Chen Tianli was packing his bags, and Chen Hao was sitting in front of the door, holding his face with his hands, not knowing what he was thinking.
"Brother, you're back. Chen Hao stood up suddenly, his little face full of joy.
Chen Xi touched Chen Hao's head and said, "Will you be out in a while?"
Chen Hao nodded, his expression became gloomy, he was reluctant to leave his brother, he felt very sad at the thought that after going to Longyuan City, he would no longer be able to see his brother often.
Chen Xi took out a long jade box and handed it over: "I bought it for you, you have to work hard." ”
"Bought it for me?"
Chen Hao was stunned, looking at the exquisite jade box, he couldn't believe his eyes for a while.
Since he was a child, whenever he saw other people's children showing off with all kinds of gifts, he was extremely envious, but he never dared to have the luxury. Because he knew that the lives of his grandparents and grandchildren depended on his brother's hard work to maintain, and in this case, he didn't dare to ask for it at all.
Now, when he was about to come out, his brother quietly bought himself a gift, how could he not be moved?
"Brother......
Chen Hao's voice was a little choked, he lowered his head, trying not to cry, but his eyes were already red.
Chen Xi patted his younger brother on the shoulder: "Take care of grandpa, and take care of yourself." ”
"Hmm!" Chen Hao nodded fiercely.
"I'll go see Grandpa, and I'll take you out of town later. Chen Xi showed a rare smile on his face, turned around and walked into the house.
Chen Hao took a deep breath and slowly opened the jade box, a long sword with a cold luster, quietly resting in the jade box.
Airplanes!
Picking up the long sword, the true yuan surged, and the long sword suddenly let out a clear groan, and a touch of sharp qi gushed out.
"Brother, don't worry, I won't let you down!"
Chen Hao looked at the long sword in his hand, his eyes were firm, as if he had grown up overnight, and he was no longer the ignorant child he used to be.
......
At noon, the golden crow hangs high.
Outside the city gates.
A carriage carrying the grandfather and grandson slowly drove away.
Chen Xi stood on the city wall, his eyes staring into the distance, and his heart fluctuated.
