Chapter 1
"Since ancient times, heroes are sad to be the beauty. My daughter of the family would rather be that great hero than be a beauty who is a disaster."
Daddy's famous family motto for the Zhan family is nothing new.
But before I was about to officially enter the martial arts world, he said this to the entire martial arts world, which really greatly damaged my thin face.
According to the report of the maid Xiaolan, the express newspaper "The Sound of the Wulin Wind" made two speculations about my father's words:
First, the daughter of the Zhan family is as ugly as if she is not salty. This sentence is to warn everyone in advance that I am not a beauty.
Second, my father was the first beauty in the martial arts world at the age of 20, and gave up his position as the deputy leader of the martial arts world and eloped with the beauty, which aroused public outrage among the young martial arts world at that time. The daughter of the Zhan family entered the martial arts world for the sake of beauty.
I have to say that both speculations are vicious.
Just at this moment, Xiao Lan sent a message to the sect leader. So I was so brave that I took a mercy, grabbed a copy of "The Wind of the Wulin", and rushed straight to my parents' house with great momentum.
As soon as I entered the hall, I realized that the atmosphere was not right. My father was sitting in the main seat, frowning with long eyebrows and a blue face; tears flashed in my mother's eyes and her face turned red.
Experience tells me that my parents are angry.
I've always been responsive and immediately understood what happened-
It must have been discovered by my father. I picked the flowers and tender leaves of his "Bingpo orchid" the day before yesterday and fryed them with venison! The orchid was a birthday gift my father brought to my mother from the Western Regions the year before yesterday.
In fact, it doesn’t taste special, it’s not as good as pork. I wouldn’t have eaten it if I knew it.
It is said that enemies should be resolved rather than formed, not to mention that the two opposites are my parents.
I threw "The Sound of the Wulin Wind" casually: "Dad, I know that orchid is precious, but I have eaten it. Next time you can bring one for my mother!"
My father's eyes were so wide that he opened: "You said... you ate Bingpolan?"
I suddenly realized that I had made a mistake, and it turned out that they didn't know...
My mother looked at me with a blame, and my father's sleeves fluttered and stirred in an instant, and there was a faint sound of wind and thunder.
I threw myself into my mother's arms and avoided my father's murderous aura.
Finally, under the mother's doting gaze, my father's hands hung helplessly: "Let's spare you once. In three months, you go down the mountain."
My mother cried out: "Hong'er, I can't bear to leave you, I don't want to worry about you..."
Going down the mountain? No way, I'm going to chase me down the mountain for a broken orchid?
No, it is definitely not because of orchids - there are many rare flowers, plants, birds and beasts that have died in my hands over the years! This one is not bad.
Why is that?
Although I really want to go down the mountain, I was not good at acting too excited. I had to resist the excitement and asked in a trembling voice: "Go down the mountain? Why?"
My father looked at me with contempt: "Go down the mountain and go to that martial arts conference."
It turned out that this was the reason why they were so worried just now - they couldn't bear to part with me! They felt a little proud, but-
"I'm going to the martial arts conference? Dad, you are the leader!" Isn't the martial arts conference all the leaders of various sects participating?
"I won't go. If I go, I will be chased by my enemies." Dad said naturally, "The matter of the sect leader is easy to deal with - today I will pass the position of the sect leader to you. Hold it, this is the token, the position of the sect leader has been passed to you."
I took the old and incomplete small wooden sign - yes, it's true, it's the one I often played with when I was young and burned with fire.
But the leader of the War Sect, this is a bit of a joke!
Dad looked at me and continued, "In three months, you must put away your monkey temper and show some of the majesty of the sect leader. Otherwise, I will send Xiaolan and you will stay on the mountain for me."
I……
Dad, is Lan'er just my personal maid? I still teach her three-legged cat kung fu.
"I'll go, can't I go?"
———
The sky is blue and the water is clear.
The fish in the pond are very stupid. I am very comfortable fishing for me.
Another Tianshan red-bellied spotted bit the hook happily. I calmly lifted the fishing rod, shook my wrist, and the red-bellied spotted streaking a beautiful waterline in the air and fell into the fish basket in response.
"Miss Blue, look, my father's snow jade shrimp is indeed the best among shrimps. It is used to catch this red-bellied spot, and it is always hit." I stroked the fishing rod and smiled.
Xiaolan, who was sitting under the shade of the tree, jumped up and clenched her fists and protested: "Miss, can you not say that? Oh my God, if the sect leader knows, you will use his snow jade shrimp to catch his red-bellied spots in Tianshan Mountains, and you will not be angry to death!"
Looking at Xiao Lan who was in a state of excitement, I covered my mouth and smiled: "Miss Lan is too worried. We will go down the mountain tomorrow, and my father will not find out at least two days later."
Xiaolan stroked her forehead: "But Miss, can you stop talking like this? It's very uncomfortable..."
I looked at Xiaolan in surprise: "It was my father who asked me to cultivate the noble and majestic temperament of the sect leader!"
Xiao Lan was speechless, walked over and looked at the only few remaining baits - Xueyu shrimp, and said hatefully: "There are the remaining ones, let me make braised shrimp."
I smiled: "Miss Blue is really killing me."
Tomorrow, I will go down the mountain. I am also reluctant to hide in the back mountain to fish.
At sunset, I got home and had my meal. My mother came over to pack my luggage for me.
My mother is a very kind person. I really don’t know how my father, who was known as the little overlord of the martial arts world, tricked her into her bag. She watched her mother stuff jade pendants, golden hairpins, and pine nut cakes into my bag...
I blocked her jade hand: "Mom, Dad has given me money, enough."
"You are so playful. If you spend all the money, you will treat it." My mother stubbornly stuffed it in.
"But..." I took out the oily pineapple cake from the bag, "Can this be used as well?"
"Eat on the road!" My mother suddenly remembered something, her eyes lit up, and she took out a thin golden silk coat: "Hong'er, this is my grandmother's ancestral armor, it's invulnerable to swords and guns, you can put it on."
I pointed to the big hole on the right shoulder of the armor in suspicion: "Really?"
My mother's face suddenly looked very ugly: "Didn't this burned it with fire when you were seven years old?"
I immediately put it on very obediently.
———
Silently crying and farewell, this kind of scene will not appear in my Zhan family.
The eldest brother stared at the bag on my back: "You, a girl, bring such a little things with you when you go out? Don't you have to change your clothes?"
The sixth junior brother laughed: "Senior brother, how come she looks like a girl? I think she plans to stop changing her clothes after going down the mountain!"
The third senior brother touched my head: "Little junior sister, don't cause trouble if you go down the mountain. If you get into trouble, don't say you are from the Zhan family. Just talk about a sect next to me." This idea was good, and I nodded.
The seventh junior brother, who was just tall and short on my waist, grabbed my sky blue mattress skirt: "Senior sister, the second senior brother said you went down the mountain to grab a beautiful brother and come back to get married. Aren't you getting married with me?"
I slowly raised my head, glanced around lightly, and said word by word: "Each, everyone, many, think about it."
Several of them shivered in groups, and the sixth junior brother lamented: "We're starting to pretend again!"
My mother took my father and stood up and said with a smile: "I think Hong'er is pretending well. When attending the martial arts conference, she will definitely scare those martial arts seniors, thinking that my Hong'er is unfathomable."
"It's still my mother who knows Hong'er!" I rushed over and held my mother's hand.
"Hong'er, remember what my father said." Dad looked at me very seriously, "It doesn't matter whether he can win the position of leader of the martial arts world. The key is to make friends in the martial arts world, highlight your martial arts skills, and let the whole martial arts know that my Zhan family is not in decline."
"I know." Isn't it just to go to the martial arts world and make him a big fuss, so that everyone knows that although the former leader of the Zhan family has been in seclusion for many years, the Zhan family is still not easy to mess with!
I really like this task.
"After going down the mountain, be careful," said Dad.
I raised my chest and raised my head, nodded, and Xiaolan behind me also nodded vigorously.
"Dad, mom, dear fellow students, Hong'er said goodbye!" I bowed, and the style of a martial arts man. The mother next to me suddenly turned red again and reached out to tidy up my clothes.
"Go." Dad said lightly, "My snow-jasper shrimp, the red belly spots in Tianshan Mountains. Since you have killed most of them, I will wait for you to come back and punish you."
My body stagnated, pulled Xiaolan up, and rushed down the mountain like a wind.
———
Those who walk around the world only seek fame and fortune.
My father asked me to enter the martial arts world because I wanted me to become famous for the Zhan family.
Although I also dealt with a few bandits and thieves along the way, I was so obscured by such a big Jin State. So I thought that I could only become famous in one battle at the martial arts conference.
So while traveling around, I was thinking about how to show my face at the martial arts conference.
Two months later, we arrived in Jiankang. The martial arts conference was still more than ten days before it started, but my money was spent. Fortunately, my mother had the foresight and a golden hairpin was exchanged for a month's expense.
Compared with Jiankang, Xiaolan and I are all very rural. Looking at the beautifully dressed people all over the street, and looking at the two of us dressed in coarse cloth men in the mountains, I felt so unbearable.
So I bought two new cloth robes, one green and one white, and we became elegant young men. I proudly walked through the streets and alleys, feeling very happy.
I spent a lot of money on buying new clothes, so I had to take out my jade pendant to go to the pawn shop again.
The shopkeeper happily gave me three hundred yuan. Not bad, enough for two months - I guess I can't stay in Jiankang for so long, so the armor on my body should be kept, so I don't have to be used as a change of money.
Xiaolan lighted the small Wuzhu coins carefully, and I looked bored at the various calligraphy and paintings hanging on the pawn shop walls - the writing was so poor that it was less than half of my mother's skills!
But I vaguely heard someone whispering on the other side of the wall. I have always been keen on my ears and listened carefully.
"That prodigal son actually took the Nuanxinzhu as his. Zheng Cong was so angry that he spent 10,000 yuan to redeem it."
"This is great. The whole martial arts world knows that the Warm Heart Pearl is in the Zheng family. I'm afraid there will be another battle! The Zheng family is in trouble!"
I suddenly lifted it up, the heartwarming bead? "The Record of Wanbao" records that the heartwarming bead is an ancient treasure. It was a secret treasure of the palace in Sun Wu and later disappeared in the war. Carrying this bead on your body can prolong your life and live forever, and it will not grow old. Grind it into powder and take it back to life.
The shopkeeper probably saw me in surprise and coughed loudly, and the two people inside the wall stopped the sound.
I really lack experience in the martial arts world and didn't know how to hide my expression just now. I must change it next time.
I looked at the shopkeeper arrogantly: "Xiao Lan, let's go."
Let's go and grab the treasure.
"Miss, what's the use of asking for that bead?" Xiaolan hurriedly followed.
Chapter completed!
